Hey Everyone! As part of a school project Raeven is hosting a lemonade stand to raise funds for Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer. We are doing our best to show Raeven how good it feels to help others. This is a 2-day event. Please stop by to show your support. If you'd like to volunteer to help, please let us know. A little about Alex & her foundation: Alexandra "Alex" Scott (1996-2004), the founder of Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation, was just 4-years-old when she came up with the idea to raise money for childhood cancer through lemonade stands. Having been diagnosed with an aggressive form of childhood cancer shortly before her first birthday, Alex set up her first stand in her front yard to help raise money for research. Alex had a keen sense of understanding, and knew that the only way children with cancer had a chance to live longer lives was to increase funding for researchers in order to pursue better treatment options. For over seven years, Alex underwent an innumerable amount of experimental treatments in the hopes that one day the doctors would find that cure. Cancer ultimately took Alex's life when she was 8 years old, but she left behind a legacy of hope and a foundation bearing her name - Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation. To help you understand the urgent need for funding, here is a staggering statistic. Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in children in the United States today. By holding an Alex's Lemonade Stand in our community, we are carrying on Alex's dream to help find better treatments and ultimately cures, something that is vastly overlooked. We need your help. Since Alex's first lemonade stand in 2000, over $25 million has been raised by children, families, schools, businesses and organizations across the country. We hope you will choose to join the national endeavor to fight childhood cancer, one cup at a time.
