P.S. Josh turns 16, yes, SIXTEEN on the 10th. Please sign his guestbook & wish him a Happy Birthday. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With the economy not so great and gas prices continuing to soar, I really didn’t expect to Raise quite as much as we did last year, but thankfully I was proved wrong again. People have continued to donate and we raised $2,122.80 to date. This brings the total raised over the past five years to more than $7,000 and Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation has raised more than $19 million!!!!!! Don’t ever let anyone tell you, you cant make a difference!!! Together we are making a difference & bringing hope to children Everywhere! Alex started a single lemonade stand to help her doctors and it has grown into a world wide phenomenon! Thank you for continuing to support this ALSF & keep saving those tabs and cans. In 2007, almost $6,000 was raised for our local Ronald McDonald House by recycling of cans and tabs. Please remember those still fighting & those families who are grieving In your prayers.
Blessings to all, The Powell family
