A Lemonade Difference

Description

Background:

Four-year-old cancer patient Alex Scott was a small girl with a big plan, to raise money for childhood cancer research through a lemonade stand. Before passing away at the age of 8, Alex raised a million dollars with the help of kids across the country.

Since then, kids all over the country have held lemonade stands to raise over 45 million dollars for childhood cancer research. This is a great way for kids of any age to make a big impact on their community.

About the Co-Author
