As the mother of a cancer survivor, I was 100% on board \u00a0when approached to spread the word about Auntie Anne’s<\/a> Pretzels partnering with Alex’s Lemonade Stand<\/a> to raise money to fight childhood cancer. \u00a0The founder of Alex’s Lemonade Stand was a four-year old girl named\u00a0Alexandra “Alex” Scott. \u00a0She was born to Liz and Jay\u00a0Scott in Manchester, Connecticut on January 18, 1996, the second of four children. Shortly before her first birthday, Alex was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, a type of childhood cancer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0To date, Alex\u2019s Lemonade Stand Foundation, \u00a0has raised more than $80 million toward fulfilling Alex\u2019s dream of finding a cure, funding over 450 pediatric cancer research projects nationally. \u00a0Watch the video below to learn how this amazing girl took lemons and made lemonade to raise money and help kids with cancer.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
