Summer is a great time to shop and help kids with cancer! No matter what (or who!) you have on your shopping list, you can help fund cutting-edge research, support families as they travel for treatment and give hope to children facing cancer.
We’ve rounded up some of our gifts, items and shopping opportunities (hello, Prime Days!) that make an impact in the fight against childhood cancer through Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF).
Beyond this list of fun summer shopping items, we have a whole variety of products that support the Foundation from our outstanding partners. You can view the complete list on our website.
Here’s how you can maximize your shopping and your impact during Prime Days and all summer long:
-
Use Amazon Smile to shop Amazon Prime Day deals (and all year around!)
Amazon Prime Day sales are July 12 and 13! Not only is this dozens of hours of epic deals, but it's a perfect time to fill your cart while doing your part for kids with cancer! While you shop for steals on school supplies, lemonade stand staples, summer must-haves and fun impulse purchases, be sure to shop through AmazonSmile and select Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation as your charitable organization of choice. When you do, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5 percent of your eligible purchase price to ALSF.
You might think that 0.5 percent is not a lot—but it is! Together, AmazonSmile shoppers have helped make hundreds of hours of research a reality, funded breakthrough clinical trials and helped families travel for childhood cancer treatment.
