The L.A. Loves Alex’s Lemonade Kids’ Campaign Has Raised Nearly $550,000 Since Its Inception
Kids’ Campaign Chair Charles Lentz kicking off the 2025 Kids’ Campaign check presentation
L.A. Loves Alex's Lemonade
Saturday, October 17, 2026
Royce Quad at UCLA
Looking for a meaningful way your kids can give back this summer? Children across the Los Angeles area are hosting lemonade stands to support childhood cancer research. Over the past five years, the L.A. Loves Alex’s Lemonade Kids’ Campaign has raised nearly $550,000. These young fundraisers are inspired by Alex Scott, whose own lemonade stand grew into a movement. Before she passed away at just eight years old, Alex raised more than $1 million to help other children battling pediatric cancer, and her legacy continues through kids who are making a big difference.
Sign Up Now! Here’s How!
- Talk to your kids about getting involved! If they’re excited to participate, email Kids’ Campaign Chair Charles Lentz with their names.
- Create a personalized fundraising page by clicking here. Each child commits to raising $300 through lemonade stand sales or online fundraising - it’s easy and fun!
- Raise funds throughout the summer, whether online or by hosting lemonade stands.
- Celebrate their impact! For every $300 raised, kids earn one complimentary adult ticket to L.A. Loves Alex’s Lemonade, which has raised more than $12 million to fight childhood cancer since 2009. At the event, the Kids’ Campaign will proudly present a big check to Alex’s parents.
