Philadelphia, PA (October 30, 2019) – The Childhood Cancer Data Lab (CCDL) powered by Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) has been integrating data to promote childhood cancer research and continue toward Alex’s goals of finding cures for all kids with cancer since it opened in 2017. The CCDL was created to fill critical research gaps in the childhood cancer community and serves as a central location to collect, analyze and share childhood cancer data from research conducted around the world.

In a continuing effort to raise funds for childhood cancer research and awareness, Northwestern Mutual Managing Director, Scott Marschall of the Tucker Network office in Washington, D.C., hosted an Oktoberfest event for Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF). His goal was to raise $10,000 and thanks to the generosity of 120 guests, he hit his goal and decided to match it, moving the total to $20,000! With Northwestern Mutual’s 100% match of Scott’s donation, the total jumped to $30,000, which inspired a donor to contribute an additional $10,000, bringing the grand total to $40,000.
