Alexandra "Alex" Scott, a young cancer patient, was only 4 years old when she decided to hold a lemonade stand to raise money for "her hospital," so doctors could help other kids like they'd helped her. Alex held her first stand in 2000 and continued to hold lemonade stands each year, inspiring support from her community and across the nation. Although sadly Alex passed away at the age of 8, she knew she had reached the ambitious goal of raising $1 million for childhood cancer research.

As a future pediatric oncologist I am carrying on Alex's inspiring legacy by raising money to fight childhood cancer. Until I can make an impact in the medical field, I am doing everything I can to help defeat childhood cancer on every front. Will you make a donation? As Alex's life showed, our small contributions can make a big impact. Thank you for your support!
