a blog about everyday heroes from around the world
Born in 1996, Alexander Scott had cancer all her life. At the age of one, she was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma.
This didn’t stop her though. Alex was determined to fight her cancer. When she was four, she opened her own lemonade stand with the intent of donating the proceeds to cancer patients. At the end of the year, she managed to make $2000. Other people had heard about her efforts and had started to donate, or put up other lemonade stand across the country. All in all, Alexandra managed to raise around $900,000 to fight Pediatric cancer.
Today, there are over 200 stands still standing all over the country, helping to get money for pediatric cancer patients.
