PORTLAND, Ore. — Following the success of its quarterly give-back campaigns, Voodoo Doughnut continues its commitment to making a positive difference in the community. This summer, the iconic doughnut shop has partnered with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) to support their mission to fight childhood cancer. To support, Voodoo Doughnut will introduce the limited-edition Strawberry Lemonade Stand Giving Doughnut, with partial proceeds benefiting ALSF.
Inspired by classic summer flavors and the impactful mission of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, the Strawberry Lemonade Stand doughnut features a mouthwatering lemon filling, drenched in strawberry frosting, and topped with handcrafted fluff, sprinkles, and a sour gummy. This delightful treat will be available at participating Voodoo Doughnut locations from July 2 to September 30, 2024.
“We’re proud to partner with Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation and support their mission to fight childhood cancer,” said Chris Schultz, Voodoo Doughnut CEO. “The Strawberry Lemonade Stand doughnut not only brings a refreshing, nostalgic flavor to our lineup but also allows our customers to contribute to a cause that brings hope and resources to children and families battling cancer. We invite everyone to join us in making a difference, one doughnut at a time.”
“We are delighted that Voodoo Doughnut chose to partner with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation!” said Liz Scott, Alex’s mom and Co-Executive Director at Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. “We couldn’t be more excited about this sweet collaboration, and we are so grateful to be part of a community that comes together to help end childhood cancer.”

About Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation:
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) emerged from the front yard lemonade stand of 4-year-old Alexandra “Alex” Scott, who was fighting cancer and wanted to raise money to find cures for all children with cancer. By the time Alex passed away at the age of 8, she had raised $1 million. Since then, the Foundation bearing her name has evolved into a worldwide fundraising movement and the largest independent childhood cancer charity in the U.S. ALSF is a leader in funding pediatric research projects across the globe and providing programs to families affected by childhood cancer.
