Lemonade Stand Find Raising -- H.M.

The article I read was about a child named Alexandra who had cancer and created a lemonade stand called "Alex's Lemonade Stand". She made this lemonade stand for cancer research. Sadly, Alex lost her battle in 2004 at the age of eight. Her friends, family, elementary school classes, and volunteers across the country have joined in this cause. The lemonade stand has raised more than $25 million for cancer research. This cause helps a child named Elijah. Elijah has a rare form of cancer called neuroblastoma. His family can't afford to pay for his treatment so this also helps his family to pay. Volvo raised $200,000 in "virtual lemonade" money. This year it is said that $7.5 million will be raised for this cause. Millions of people around the world have set up their own stands.
I think this is going to have a positive impact on people with cancer. It would make a positive impact on me also because a relative of mine has cancer and if $7.5 million is donated, she along with every other person suffering from cancer will be treated and hopefully be cured. This is a great cause in my opinion because its helping another person. If you can, try thinking about donating to this cause.
