The hosts of each lemonade stand make a commitment to the Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer, and each operates independently, donating all proceeds to the foundation. Each stand is hosted in honor of a child who has been diagnosed with cancer.
to help kids, and due to the nationwide support, Alex’s Lemonade Stand has become symbolic for the fight against childhood cancer.
The grandstand which consists of 19 lemonade stands – 16 in northeast Ohio (Summit and Portage Counties) and one in Cincinnati, Illinois and Georgia – have collectively raised $90,000 since 2005. The goal for the grandstand this year is to raise $25,000.
