Bailee Madison Supports Alex’s Lemonade Stand To Fight Cancer
Recently actress Bailee Madison helped to host an event for Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation a nonprofit organization which helps raise money for childhood cancer. Below she talks a little about how others can get involved in creating their own lemonade stands to help donate to this important cause.
Alex’s Lemonade Stand was founded when Alex, who was diagnosed with childhood cancer just before her first birthday, was four, she told her parents she wanted to set up a front-yard lemonade stand. Her plan: to give the money to doctors to help them find a cure. Her first “Alex’s Lemonade Stand” raised an astonishing $2,000 in one day. While bravely fighting her own cancer, Alex continued to set up lemonade stands every year. As news spread of the remarkable girl so dedicated to helping other sick children, people everywhere were inspired to start their own lemonade stands—donating the proceeds to her cause.
