Every day, there are almost 700 new cases of childhood cancer around the world, on October 13, 2017 Big Hurt was one of the 700. Childhood cancer is vastly and consistently underfunded with less than 4% of the federal government's total funding for cancer research is dedicated to childhood cancers each year. Kids fighting for their lives... MY kid, deserves more than 4%! The treatment for Riley is a 2 year protocol with an 85% survival rate at 5 years... if relapse occurs his chances of a 5 year survival drop drastically... Riley is one of the lucky ones when it comes to statistics... some childhood cancers have a ZERO percent chance of survival.., imagine for a minute going in to the doctor because your kid has had a headache and being told they won’t love to see their birthday 2 years from now... please consider donating to help fund research not only to improve Big Hurts protocol but to help save kids from the death sentence that is DPIG.
Our founder, Alex Scott, started Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation with one front yard lemonade stand. Today, ALSF has raised over $150 million and has funded nearly 1,000 research grants at institutions around the U.S. and Canada. It all started with one cup of lemonade. You can carry on Alex’s inspiring legacy by raising money to fight childhood cancer. Please make a donation of any amount to help more kids like Alex fight cancer.
