Today I am blogging from our REAL lemonade stand at the end of our driveway. It’s sunny and warm but it is still a SLOOOOW day. We are out here raising money for Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer. K12, the company that does the curriculum for our school, the Ohio Virtual Acadamy, organized a nationwide fundraiser! The foundation is in honor of Alex Scott, a little girl who when she was 4 years old had just overcome a bout of cancer and wanted to help other kids with cancer. She started a lemonade stand and raised money and caught the eye of national media which helped her cause. She has since succumbed to her cancer, and the foundation and kids all around the country carry on in her name.
