Alex believed that together, we can cure childhood cancer; a belief that’s resulted not only in a Foundation bearing her name, but in breakthroughs and cures for children fighting cancer, just like her. Since that first stand, Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation has been able to: 🍋 Fund more than 1,000 research projects at nearly 150 institutions - developing safer, more effective treatment options for children fighting cancer 🍋 Assist thousands of children to travel for treatment - financial support for families from the Travel For Care program has helped children reach treatment options beyond their home hospital 🍋 Expand resources for families - from childhood cancer guides to empowering siblings of all ages, families have more resources than ever to navigate a diagnosis There is more work to do if we want to achieve Alex’s mission of better treatments and cures for all children with cancer. The burden of childhood cancer is staggering, but raising awareness and funds makes a difference.
