ALSF emerged from the front yard lemonade stand of cancer patient Alexandra “Alex” Scott. In 2000, 4-year-old Alex announced 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. Alex died in 2004 but the little girl left a big legacy proving how one idea can make a huge difference.
CBS 3 acknowledges the support of Local Tri-State Toyota Dealers, Ashley Furniture Home Store, The Malvern School, Sila, Doc Bresler’s, and Entercom Radio Philadelphia in making this special fundraising effort possible.
CBS 3 (KYW-TV) and The CW Philly 57 (WPSG-TV) are part of CBS TelevisionStations, a division of CBS Corporation.
