Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation - National Lemonade Days June 8th-10th

National Lemonade Days is June 8, 9 and, 10 - you pick the time and the place. Then gather your friends, local groups and family together and hold your very own lemonade stand to help raise funds to fight childhood cancer. Watch the video below to learn more about Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (have a tissue handy).


What is Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation?
The foundation was started by an amazing little girl (she was in the video) who was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 1. At age 4 she decided to set up a lemonade stand to help raise money to find a cure. Sadly she lost her fight against cancer at the age of 8. But she helped raise over 1 million dollars over those short 4 years. Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation was started by her parents in 2005 to continue the work that Alex began. 

How can you help?
By hosting your own lemonade stand of course! Or finding a local lemonade stand that you can make a donation too. Here is our homeschool groups lemonade stand page
