When
This September we will celebrate Jack’s 2nd year remission - 2 years down and 3 to go for him to be considered cured of cancer. We will celebrate for sure, but we will also dedicate the month, Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, to helping those who continue to battle and work to end this terrible disease. We will be participating in Alex’s Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation’s Million Mile in his honor
A million miles may seem like a far distance—but families battling childhood cancer would go a million miles and more for cures for their children.
Every September during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, people everywhere join Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation for The Million Mile. The largest childhood cancer awareness challenge, The Million Mile funds critical, innovative research. Childhood cancer families help lead the charge by forming teams, raising awareness, logging miles and fundraising.
Even though childhood cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in children, research is critically underfunded as compared to adult cancer research. The Million Mile is a chance to change that fact and to help continue Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation’s mission of finding cures and safer treatments for all children.
