They hoped to raise $5,000 for childhood cancer treatment, which has historically been underfunded compared to other cancers.

Louis’ mother reported that they raised approximately three hundred and seven hundred dollars, but people can still donate online.

Donations can be made on the Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation website.
