“We owe a debt of gratitude to a little Pennsylvania girl named Alex for her tenacious desire to raise money for childhood cancer research by selling lemonade,” said Timothy Cripe, MD, PhD, division chief of Hematology/Oncology/Blood and Marrow Transplant at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. We can expand our reach both scientifically and with human capital, and this translates directly into innovative, high-quality care for patients.” This extraordinary funding will allow us to increase our work and bring new, exciting therapies to the children and families who need these promising options most. “From the beginning, we have worked to provide the best care and treatment options to our patients. "We are deeply grateful to Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation and the Scott family for their investment in our program,” said Children’s Colorado grant recipient Lia Gore, MD. We know firsthand how important these trials are to children and their families facing childhood cancer, and we want to ensure they have access to them.”

“It was through access to the latest treatments in clinical trial that Alex was able to survive to the age of 8 and create what has now become a leading national nonprofit to find cures for all kids with cancer. “When my daughter Alex was battling neuroblastoma, the traditional treatment protocol proved to be ineffective,” said Jay Scott, Co-Executive Director of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. With funding from the Infrastructure Grants, hospitals and institutions are able to employ essential support personnel specifically focused on providing this imperative access to clinical trials and in turn bring the latest treatments to more children. While doctors and researchers work to find these treatments and cures, the Foundation is dedicated to speeding up the process of clinical trials, and working to provide more access for patients in need. Since inception, the primary focus of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation has been to find better treatments and ultimately cures for all kids with cancer. The grants will extend to Robin Norris, MD at Case Western Reserve University Lia Gore, MD at the Children’s Hospital Colorado Julia Glade-Bender, MD at Columbia University Medical Center Timothy Cripe, MD/PhD at Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital Julie Park at Seattle Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center and Regina Jakacki, MD at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC (full lay summaries can be found on the following page). Additionally, to sustain the momentum, at the close of the five-year period, the Foundation will match the project’s institutional fundraising for a subsequent five years. The grants, which are intended to accelerate early phase research efforts to increase patient participation and speed up completion of studies, will provide $625,000 over the course of five years to six institutions. Philadelphia, PA (January 14, 2014) – In an effort to bring the latest treatments to more children with cancer now, Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) has announced the awarding of six new Phase I/II Infrastructure Grants to researchers at leading hospitals and institutions across the country.
