The value is INSPIRATION, the person used to represent this is Alexandra Scott. This person is a perfect example of inspiration because this little girl was diagnosed with neuroblastoma two days before her first birthday. She was four when she was inspired to raise money to help "her hospital." She donated $2,000 she got for a lemonade stand in July of 2000. When she moved, she continued to raise money with a lemonade stand, and raised $20,000 in honor of her friend who had lost her battle with neuroblastoma. In 2004, this amazing little girl set a goal to raise 1 million dollars. From the help of family, friends, and strangers throughout all 50 states, this little girl met her goal. She passed away on August 1, 2004. before she died, she set a goal to raise 5 million dollars for pediatric cancer research in 2005.

Your daughter is a true inspiration. She has shown me that no matter what age you are if you believe in something and you are dedicated to it you should always fight for it. I am so glad I read her story it has inspired me to stand up for what I believe in. Thank you for putting your child's story up on these billboards.

In our life, there is only one thing that could make us move on - inspiration. You may be inspired by love, friendship, or even interest. Inspiration is one of the most elements in our life. Inspiration is our hope. Inspiration is the key to succeeded.

I cry for the loss of this beautiful little girl every time I see this billboard or read her story. I have her book and read it to my little girls. Every time, I have the same reaction. She has set an amazing example of will and determination. It is also a reminder to all that if Alex can accomplish so much in such a short lifetime, there are no excuses. We must use our time and resources wisely. Her inspiration and spirit lives on.

You should never give up a dream no matter what disibility you have. You have to keep on going with persistence and confidence.

This is such a touching reminder of how giving a little- the cost of a bottle of lemonade- really does make a difference. Don't be paralyzed by the idea that you don't have enough to give. I work in Philadelphia schools and used to live in Harlem. Last year, the school in which I worked in Philly- where 80% of the children live at or below the poverty line- raised over $2000 in one month for Alex's lemonade selling cookies from shop-rite. In Harlem, the children bring pennies to school for a fundraiser- the different schools come together and they get up on stage and weigh their pennies (instead of counting them). The pride on these children's faces- again, many of whom live in poverty- well, oftentimes it is those who know need who are most willing to give. As an adult, I think that the joy you get from giving runs laps around that you get from getting.

I thought Alex's lemonade stand was a great story. I'm happy she was able to raise that much money but sad she did't make it.

People that have challenges aren't different from us. Have challenges could be having to wear glasses, use a wheel chair, having an illness and so many more. We have to look past challenges and only by what we are inside.

Truly a girl who, when life gave her lemons, made lemonade.
Posted about 1 year ago by Robert R. from Los Angeles, CA

Wow! This story has a true inspiration to it. I think I will get some of my friends to start up a lemonade stand to make Alex's dream continue with the faith that she had, which can carry us far with her goal that she had worked so hard for. This girl should be a hero in some shape or form for us all. This story brought tears to my eyes, and I will read more, I thought this would be weird I am only on here for a school project but I will definitely visit again because of one girls doing.

She's sooo cute I wish she was my little sister. She's a great girl with an inspiration to light up the sky! I hope one day to have children of my very own to shine like her! She reminds me of back in the day when I was a little girl I would always have lemonade stands but of course I was soo greedy and kept all the money. Oh how I do wish I had donated that money to good causes.

It's amazing that a four-year old can have such a big idea and such a big heart. Most adults would never even try something like that.

Alexandra Scott is the perfect example of how little kids often have a more pure insight into the world and what needs to be done to fix it then adults. She saw a problem, and didn't think about how hard it would be, or what people would think. She just started raising money to help herself, but much more importantly others. She is the most selfless little girl I've ever heard of. A wonderful soul left the world the day she died, and everyone affected by cancer thanks her dearly.

I ran across this site by accident but am very glad that I did! This billboard and backstory is very inspirational. It seems to me that "Alex" knew what was the right thing to do, while so many others just talk the talk. I am sure her parents were very proud of her. Alex, I dont think I will ever forget your story!

I don't normally make comments on websites or really on anything for that matter. But I was curious about this billboard after seeing on the side of the freeway. So, I came to this website and read the backstory about it, and boy this story is really inspirational.I got a bit choked up reading it and I am a bit know rethinking it. Which raises the question. If a little girl can do so much for a cause she belives in, then what can you or I do? And why dont we do it? (whatever that may be).
