In 2000, a 4 year old cancer patient named Alexandra "Alex" Scott announced a seemingly simple idea -she was holding a lemonade stand to raise money to help "her doctors" find a cure for kids with cancer. The idea was put into action by Alex and her older brother, Patrick, when they set up the first "Alex's Lemonade Stand for Childhood Cancer" on their front lawn in July of 2000.

Mission Statement Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation is a unique foundation that has evolved from that young cancer patient's front yard lemonade stand to a nationwide fundraising movement for childhood cancer.

Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation is committed to:

* Raising money and awareness for pediatric cancer causes, primarily research into new cures and treatments.

* Encouraging and educating others, especially children, to raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for childhood cancer.
