We had a blast at Alex’s “Original” Lemonade Stand yesterday! 💛🍋

Thank you to everyone who showed up, donated, volunteered, shared a cup of lemonade, and helped carry forward Alex’s mission to change the lives of kids with cancer. Because of this amazing community, Alex’s legacy continues to inspire hope, fund critical research, and support families facing childhood cancer.

We want to shout out childhood cancer hero George and his family for their stand last month supporting research for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. They doubled their fundraising goal and raised $2,077, the equivalent of 42 hours of research! 🍋🙌

George’s mom said, “We were so happy and overwhelmed with the funds we were able to raise. It was such a positive experience and one of my sons even said, ‘this feels so good.’”

Feeling inspired by George and his family’s amazing work? Sign up to host your own stand to help us fight childhood cancer during Lemonade Days here -> https://t.co/JVVg9b6Ewo 💛

Over twenty years ago, Liz Scott got a call from one of the owners of a racehorse named Afleet Alex. The person on the line mentioned they had a horse that was "pretty good" and they’d been donating anonymously to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) whenever the horse won. They wanted to keep donating, but go public with their support.

The caller, one of the horse’s co-owners, asked Liz what she thought.

“I knew nothing about horse racing at the time,” recalled Liz, “But my husband, Jay, and I thought, why not?”

Their daughter and ALSF founder, Alex, had died less a year before, leaving the Scotts with broken hearts, but with a mission. Alex had raised over $1 million for childhood cancer through her lemonade stands with the help of other supporters and stand hosts all across the country. After her death, Liz and Jay grappled with how to continue Alex’s incredible work without Alex present — should they keep going or stop?

Soon, the Scotts would learn that the owners had been modest about the ability of the horse. Afleet Alex, was much more than “pretty good” — he was a three-year-old thoroughbred with speed and enough racing success to qualify for the Kentucky Derby — and like Liz and Jay’s daughter, Alex, he would show the world he also had resilience and heart.

It seemed that another Alex had stepped up to help kids with cancer. #belmontstakes #triplecrown #childhoodcancer

Thanks to research, more children than ever are surviving cancer. Now we must ensure they can thrive long after treatment ends. Every day is for survivorship because a cure isn't enough. #NationalCancerSurvivorsMonth

Surviving childhood cancer is just the beginning of the journey. Childhood cancer survivors face side effects from treatment that can emerge at any time, even when the world might believe their cancer journey is over. Research is focused on finding safer, less toxic treatments, understanding the impact of cancer on kids as they grow, and providing specialized health care services to survivors.

Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation offers its Childhood Cancer Guide for Survivors as an essential resource for families and survivors. Get the guide here: https://t.co/ZqNR1mUDQI 💛

This week's featured childhood cancer hero is Chris Ramirez!

Chris loves baseball – he has a history of playing for his high school team and is a longtime fan of the San Francisco Giants. However, when he was in high school, Chris began having strange symptoms. Then he had a stroke and couldn't feel the left side of his body. He underwent surgery and chemotherapy, and today, Chris is a three-time survivor of glioblastoma.
