Perfect Way to Start the Week: ALSF on CBS Sunday Morning

Home » Blog

It's here....one of the busiest (and best) weeks of the year for Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation! We kick it off with the CBS Phone Bank on Thursday, June 6 (tune in to watch or donate online at cbsphilly.com), National Lemonade Days is June 7-9 (hundreds of stands are being held coast to coast) and Alex's "Original" Lemonade Stand, commemorating Alex's annual summertime lemonade stand at the school she once attended, is June 8.

The funds raised from this week alone will help to support a number of pediatric cancer research projects looking for better treatments and cures for all children with cancer. A great feature on "CBS Sunday Morning" yesterday, Sunday, June 2, detailed how the story of our founder Alex has come full circle as research funded by ALSF is leading to lifesaving cures. Missed it? Watch it online and as you see stands popping up in your neighborhood this weekend (or anytime of the year), remember the impact that a simple glass of lemonade can have on a child with cancer.
