9th Annual Lemonade Days Fundraiser

There will be a lemonade stand fundraiser for fighting childhood cancer outside of CVS on Main Street from 11am to 1pm.  All proceeds will go to the Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation.  Please stop by for a free cup of lemonade and please make a donation.

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.
