Alex’s Lemonade Stand and 870 Restaurants Mark More Than a Decade of Support With Target of $6 Million in Total Fundraising
Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) grew from the front yard lemonade stand of four-year-old cancer patient Alexandra “Alex” Scott fifteen years ago.. Today, Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation is one of the nation’s leading philanthropic organizations in support of pediatric cancer research.
Kicking off a month long campaign, June 29 marks the eleventh consecutive year that franchisees of Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar have supported Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. Coming off a record of more than $1 million fundraising proceeds generated in 2014, and nearly $5 million raised since 2005, more than 870 Applebee’s restaurants nationwide will work toward topping the $6 million mark in 2015.
