Fundraiser Details
When
We are carrying on Alex's inspiring legacy by participating in the Virtual End Childhood Cancer Walk/Run. Typically held in Philadelphia, it has been difficult for us to participate in person (me in Northern NJ now, and my extremely busy family in parts of the Lehigh Valley). Just like the Million Mile, which we're looking forward to in September, we can all participate in this event no matter where we are. Please join our team. Whether you're fundraising or just having fun, our small contributions can make a big impact. Thank you!
Alexandra "Alex" Scott, a young cancer patient, was only 4 years old when she decided to hold a lemonade stand to raise money for "her hospital," so doctors could help other kids like they'd helped her. Alex held her first stand in 2000 and continued to hold lemonade stands each year, inspiring support from her community and across the nation. Although sadly Alex passed away at the age of 8, she knew she had reached the ambitious goal of raising $1 million for childhood cancer research.
