The Founding of a Foundation

 Before her first birthday, Alex was diagnosed with
neuroblastoma, a form of pediatric cancer.
 In 2000, neuroblastoma had not yet been defeated, as
doctors discovered newly emerged tumors.
 During a stem cell transplant in 2000- when she was
four- Alex asked to hold a front-yard lemonade stand
with hope to “help other kids.”

Alex’s journey to find a cure, began quicker than anyone could imagine.
