Every day, there are almost 800 new cases of childhood cancer around the world. This adds up to an estimated 300,000 new cases of cancer that affect children under the age of 20 each year worldwide. And yet, childhood cancer is vastly and consistently underfunded with less than 4% of the federal government's total funding for cancer research dedicated to childhood cancers each year.

Today, the money you donate has the potential to make a huge difference in the lives of kids with cancer (and their families). Your donation will fund research into safer, more effective treatments and cures. Give today!

Please note that for this years donations, the support will specifically go to funding reasearch for AML, the type of leukemia that led to my father's passing. Transparently, I selected just to see options and was not able to change it after selection. If that does not align with where you want your donations to go, please feel free to donate to Alex's Lemonade Stand as a whole rather than within my team.
