Sophia describes herself as “one tough cookie” and we believe her. At age 4, she may not have understood what cancer was when she was diagnosed with Wilms’ tumor, but Sophia knew she would beat it. Once they removed what she called the “bad thing from her belly”, she took whatever steps were necessary to get better.
Sophia, now 8, is three years cancer-free and loves to read, swim and just be a kid. Sophia has turned lemons into lemonade by offering words of encouragement to other kids who are recently diagnosed. Her family has even supported Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) by holding lemonade stands at their local Firebirds restaurant.
YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT is why children like Sophia and her family have hope and are able to receive potentially lifesaving treatments to fight childhood cancer.
YOU ARE THE REASON why Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation has been able to continue to fund researchers around the country to develop new treatments and cures for childhood cancer.
YOUR GENEROUS GIFT helps fund the most promising, innovative scientific projects with the greatest likelihood of making an impact.
THANK YOU!
