2020 has been a hard year for everyone. It has especially been hard on the children currently undergoing treatment. They and their whole families have had to stay quarantined for extended periods of time to protect the children from exposure to the virus. Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation has been working tirelessly to help these families out by providing them with basic services, such as grocery deliveries.
We at Lemon Aid are proud to have partnered with them in their efforts and are so proud of our local community, for banding together to help us raise over $37,000 for this amazing cause.
With all of the struggles this past year, we know we’re are asking a lot of you all when we ask for donations, but the children afflicted by cancer are in more need than ever.
This year, our event will be 100% virtual. All we are asking is for you to visit our ALSF page and donate. Any amount will help us get close to our goal of $5,000. All of the money will go directly to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation for immediate use in their relief efforts.
As an added bonus, we will be offering prizes to random donors. At the end of the event, just before Christmas, we will pick On-Line Donors at random, or receive one of several prizes we have collected.
Prizes include a COVID-19 Survival Gift Basket from Discount Madness as well as Visa and Amazon gift cards. Everyone who donates qualifies for a prize, regardless of how much you donate.
On top of donating, we are also asking for your help in getting the word out. Please go to your various social media and share our link. Help us spread the word and reach our $5000 goal. Together, we can fight childhood cancer, one cup a time.
Thank you.
Every day, there are almost 700 new cases of childhood cancer around the world. This adds up to an estimated 250,000 new cases of cancer affect children under the age of 20 each year worldwide. And yet, 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.
Today, the money you donate has the potential to make a huge difference in the lives of kids with cancer (and their families). Your donation will go to research into better and safer treatments and more cures. Please don’t make these kids wait longer than they have to and give today!
