Lots of winners at annual Alex's Lemonade Stand in Langhorne, Pa
Each year, the annual Alex’s Lemonade stand and car show is hosted by Riley Gillespie at Maple Point Middle School in Langhorne, Pa
Riley Gillespie who started and has been hosting the stand since he was 11 says his motivation was his four friends who’ve had cancer, including two who ultimately lost their battle with the disease
The events always feature plenty of beautiful cars, games, music by a DJ, carnival rides, a bake sale, raffle baskets, a huge 50/50 winner, all kinds of food, lots and lots of prizes and of course, plenty of lemonade.
In the last 8 years, nearly $108,000 has been raised. All proceeds raised directly benefit the Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation for Child Cancer. Below are some photos from past Alex's Lemonade Stand events.
