Alex's Lemonde Stand

Alex's Lemonade Stand is a nationwide fundraiser started because of a little girl named Alex who was suffering from cancer. It is now a widespread effort to raise money to help fight against childhood cancer. Stands are setup throughout the U.S. selling lemonade and other lemon products, with the proceeds going toward research to help cure cancer and to treat children patients. The brothers of Alpha Delta work with the Gamma Sigma Sigma sisters to organize several ALS stands throughout the year to raise money for this cause. The stands take place either on campus or in the area, at businesses such as WalMart or Sam's Club, where one was recently held. The brothers and sisters make pitchers of lemonade and bake goods such as lemon-poppyseed muffins, lemon pound cake, etc., and man the stand to sell the goods. After the stand is empty, the money raised is sent to the ALS organization to help fight against childhood cancer and help as many children as possible and have a positive impact on their lives and those of the victims' familes.
