HANNAH TEEBAGY IS TURNING 10!!!!

Hannah is excited to celebrate her birthday with her family and friends. She does not want anyone to buy her a gift, as a birthday celebration with family and friends is more than gift enough!!

However, if you would otherwise feel inclined to buy a gift for Hannah, she kindly asks you consider donating to Alex's Lemonade Stand. Alex's Lemonade Stand was founded by a young girl with cancer who set up a lemonade stand to raise money to research childhood cancer causes, treatment and cures. Alex spent most of her life in medical treatment and, unfortunately, passed away from the disease a few months shy of her 9th birthday.

Having been touched by Alex's story, and inspired by her spirit and dedication to help other children, Hannah wants to use her 10th birthday as a way to help promote this important cause and honor Alex's legacy.

Hannah is hoping to raise a total of $1,500.00. Hannah would love to meet or exceed her goal!

• $50 will fund one hour of research.
• $400 will fund one day of research.
• $2,000 will fund a week of research

Hannah also wants to say a special "THANK YOU" to the PALM BEACH SKATE ZONE, her partner in fundraising for the second year in a row. Hannah and her family greatly appreciate their extraordinary efforts to support Alex's Lemonade Stand and make Hannah's birthday party and fundraising efforts such an amazing success!

Palm Beach Skate Zone Grants Third Grader’s Birthday Wish

By Town-Crier Editor at February 6, 2015 | 12:03 am

Loyal Binks Forest Elementary School business partner Palm Beach Skate Zone went all out to help a Binks Forest student have the best birthday ever.

Binks Forest third grader Hannah Teebagy wanted to continue her tradition of raising money for charitable causes instead of receiving birthday gifts. After scheduling her ninth birthday party for Jan. 11 at the Palm Beach Skate Zone, the staff there sprang into action. They wanted to make Teebagy’s birthday a huge success and ensure that she was able to raise the most money she could for Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, a charity established by a young cancer patient who set up a lemonade stand to raise money for pediatric cancer research and awareness.

Palm Beach Skate Zone’s Catering Manager Tim Shepley worked around the clock tending to every party detail, and even set up a lemonade stand at the party, the proceeds of which he contributed to Hannah’s fundraising efforts. Inspired by Teebagy’s hope to use her birthday as a way to make a difference in the lives of children suffering from cancer, Palm Beach Skate Zone established a permanent “Alex’s Lemonade Stand.” From that day forward, half the proceeds from sales of lemonade sold there will go directly to the charity.

Palm Beach Skate Zone also extended an invitation for Teebagy to partner with them for all her future birthdays to continue their fundraising efforts for this worthy cause. Teebagy raised $1,500 for Alex’s Lemonade Stand.

Thank you for inspiring us all by your kindness and generosity. We love you so very much!! Mom, Dad, Holden, Leah and your pets too!
