Key Club would like you to come out and support your high school junior and senior guys’ volleyball as they battle it out for cancer. 

The event starts at 6pm on Tuesday, November 15th at the Deer Park High School. Doors open at 5:45pm. Donated items from local businesses will be raffled off at the event. Organizers are asking for $5 to get into the event; raffle tickets can be purchased for an additional $1 each. 

Alex’s Lemonade Stand
Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) emerged in the year 2000 in the form of the front yard lemonade stand of 4-year-old Alexandra “Alex” Scott. Alex, who was fighting cancer, and wanted to raise money to find cures for all children with cancer. Her spirit and determination inspired others to support and join her efforts. Alex passed away at the age of 8, by that time she had helped raise over $1 million. Today, ALSF is one of the leading funders of pediatric cancer research in the U.S. and Canada, raising more than $250 million so far, funding over 1,000 research projects, and providing programs to families affected by childhood cancer.
