lemonade stand for charity.

Some friends and I are hosting a lemonade stand to raise money for pediatric cancer research.

WHEN: Saturday June 10, 2006, 11am - 4pm

WHERE: Douglas Park in Santa Monica (1116 Chelsea Ave, 90403 - The Park is on Wilshire Boulevard between 20th Street and 26th Street, about two miles southwest of the 405 Freeway. Parking is available at meters on Wilshire between 25th and Chelsea, and on surrounding streets.)

WHAT: A nice day at the park with face painting, kids crafts and caricatures. Oh, and lemonade. Lots of lemonade.


Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation is a unique organization that has evolved from a young cancer patient's front yard lemonade stand to a nationwide fundraising movement. This group is committed to raising money and awareness for pediatric cancer causes, primarily research into new cures and treatments. ALSF also aims to encourage and educate others to raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation. For more info about the organization, please visit http://alexslemonade.org

UPDATE: We set a goal of $1500, and with online donations of $525.00 and $1059.85 from our stand, our grand total was $1584.85!!! As a result of everyone's generosity, Alex's Lemonade Stand Organization has been able to send out grant awards to 30 different hospitals nationwide, for a total of FOUR MILLION DOLLARS in two years. http://www.alexslemonade.org

That's what I'm talkin about!

Oh, and KIA is running. Someone in Atlanta found me on the internet and told me so :) And I'm developing a TV pilot with some amazing girls. Can't say much because it's all hush-hush, Hollywood style. Details to come...
