Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF)
A childhood-cancer charity started by a four-year-old patient's lemonade stand that now funds hundreds of grants and runs an open-science data lab for paediatric cancer genomics.
Overview
Founded 2005 after Alexandra Scott's fundraising (she died of neuroblastoma in 2004 at age 8). ALSF has awarded >$300 million in grants, runs the Childhood Cancer Data Lab (Philadelphia) whose refine.bio harmonises public transcriptomic data and whose OpenPBTA/OpenPedCan atlas underpins paediatric brain tumour research, funds the Crazy 8 initiative for the hardest paediatric cancers, and supports families' travel to treatment. Partner of the Children's Oncology Group and CHOP.
Holds
Childhood cancer research grants, the Childhood Cancer Data Lab (open data tools including refine.bio and the Open Pediatric Cancer Atlas), Travel For Care assistance, and a paediatric trial finder.
