Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation Hosts Inaugural Lemon Climb Houston on Saturday, March 24, 2018

National charity invites Houston-area to join the fight against childhood cancer, one step at a time.

Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF), a nonprofit dedicated to finding cures for all kids with cancer, will host the inaugural Lemon Climb Houston on Saturday, March 24, 2018 at JPMorgan Chase Tower, the tallest building in Texas courtesy of in-kind sponsor Hines.  

Athletic achievers, stair climbing enthusiasts, ALSF supporters and others are invited to challenge themselves by climbing 35, 60 or all 75 flights of stairs at Chase Tower. It is $25 to register and participants are required to raise a minimum of $100–which funds two hours of childhood cancer research. ALSF has awarded over $12 million to research projects at hospitals and institutions in Houston.

Climbers can participate on their own or create a team to climb and fundraise together. All participants will receive a limited edition Lemon Climb Houston t-shirt and are invited to the post-climb party featuring food and music. Exclusive to The Lemon Climb Houston, climbers can access the tower’s private 60th floor Sky Lobby for a one-of-a-kind view of the Houston skyline before joining the after-party!

“Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation is excited to bring The Lemon Climb to Houston,” said Jay Scott, co-executive director and father of ALSF founder Alexandra “Alex” Scott. “Through our special events held across the country, including The Lemon Climb, we’ve been able to raise significant funds for the fight against childhood cancer. The Lemon Climb will allow participants to make a difference in the lives of children and their families facing the disease in a challenging and fun way, one step at a time.”
