New this year, 50 families across the country have been selected to represent their states and join Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) in the fight against childhood cancer during Alex’s Lemonade Days (June 12-14). These Hero Family State Representatives, all of whom have been personally impacted by childhood cancer, will share their stories, hold their own lemonade stands, and spread word about the fundraiser and the ALSF mission throughout their communities.
