Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation to Visit Katy, TX March 9th

In an effort to join the battle against childhood cancer, local Katy ISD students will host an Alex’s Lemonade Stand on Tuesday, March 9 from 5-7 PM at Bonnie Holland Elementary School .  These elementary school students were inspired to get involved with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation after hearing about Alexandra “Alex” Scott, the girl who started this program.

Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) emerged from the front yard lemonade stand of cancer patient Alexandra “Alex” Scott (1996-2004). 2010 marks 10 years since 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 volunteers 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 $30 million towards fulfilling Alex’s dream of finding a cure, funding over 125 research projects nationally.

Bonnie Holland Elementary School is located at 23720 Seven Meadows Parkway at the corner of Gaston and Seven Meadows Parkway.
