We Mean It!

"I'm proud that a lot of kids are helping other kids with cancer by raising money for Alex's Lemonade Stand and giving it to Doctors to help them find cures. I like speaking to people and visiting stands because it lets everyone know how wonderful Alex's is."

- Charlotte McAuliffe, 9-years-old
Brain Tumor Survivor

To coincide with our most recent e-newsletter, we wanted to take some time out to reflect on the reasons why Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation exists – to find cures for all kids with cancer. When we say our ultimate goal is to put ALSF out of business, we mean it! While we take pride in knowing that we are making a difference in the lives of all children battling cancer each and every day, we can think of no better day when we close our doors because all kids with cancer are cured!

In that regard, we are so honored that all of our volunteers, sponsors and supporters everywhere are helping us take strides to do just that. As our founder, Alexandra “Alex” Scott knew when she opened her very first front yard lemonade stand, every single donation counts! When we receive funds from a lemonade stand, an event, a text or a donation online, we use that money to fund research to help children and their families battling childhood cancer.

We hope you will take a few minutes out of your day today to view our video “We Mean It!” This video proves that each and every fundraiser and donation makes a difference and gets us closer to our ultimate goal – to help children facing cancer.



Thank you for your continued support and for joining us on our quest to find a cure for all kids with cancer!
