National Lemonade Days With Alex’s Lemonade Stand

I know we’re in the middle of of Memorial Day celebrations but I wanted to tell you about an equally special weekend coming up. June 6-8 is National Lemonade Days – three days devoted to raising funds to fight childhood cancer.

Lemonade Days are the result of one very special child, Alex Scott. She was a cancer patient who at the age of four she decided to hold a lemonade stand to raise funds for other children who were battling the disease. Out of this small but significant gesture grew Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. Through this foundation over 450 research projects have been funded and countless families with children suffering from cancer have received aid and support.

If you’d like to support Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation you can make a donation or purchase an item in their fun online store. My favorite item is the book Alex and the Amazing Lemonade Stand which teaches children all about this wonderful girl.

And if you’d like to do even more, how about holding a lemonade stand? Alex’s Lemonade Stand is happy to provide all the items you need to set one up.

I know June 6-8 is just around the corner but I’ve got great news! You can hold a stand any time of the year. Just pick a day that works for you, request a kit and you’re good to go. And now that it’s summer it’s the perfect time to hold a stand! At your work, your home, your church…the options are endless and the rewards are great.
