Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) emerged from the front
yard lemonade stand of cancer patient Alexandra “Alex” Scott (1996-
2004). In 2000, 4-year-old Alex announced that she wanted to hold a
lemonade stand to raise money to help find a cure for all children with
cancer. Since Alex held that first stand, the Foundation bearing her
name has evolved into a national fundraising movement, complete
with thousands of supporters across the country carrying on her legacy
of hope. To date, Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, a registered
501(C)3 Charity, has raised more than $50 million toward fulfilling Alex’s
dream of finding a cure, funding over 200 research projects nationally.
