Show Notes

Meet Liz Scott: Liz is the co founder of the Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation. This foundation was started by Liz and her husband Jay after their daughter Alexandra passed away from Neuroblastoma in 2004, at the age of eight. Alex, as everyone called her, decided at the age of 4 to start a lemonade stand to help kids who had cancer. Just two weeks before her passing, she achieved her goal of raising one million dollars with this lemonade stand concept. This foundation has grown from a million and a half dollars when it was started in 2005, to a foundation that has raised over 200 million dollars to help in this Pediatric Cancer Fight. Liz tells a remarkable story of her amazing daughter Alex and a foundation that has benefited so many Pediatric Cancer Patients.
