Planet Smoothie (www.PlanetSmoothie.com) is excited to announce a month-long fundraising campaign in support of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF), a U.S. non-profit fighting pediatric cancer. Starting on September 1, when customers purchase a Lunar Lemonade smoothie (20oz or larger) at any Planet Smoothie location or online at www.PlanetSmoothie.com, Planet Smoothie will be donating $1 to ALSF. Guests also have the option to support the cause by making a monetary donation during checkout any time of the year.
Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation is changing the lives of children with cancer by funding impactful research, raising awareness, supporting families, and empowering everyone to help cure childhood cancer.
“Following the resounding success of last year’s campaign in support of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, and thanks to the generous donations of our customers, we are excited to continue our efforts and continue to amplify the support we are able to provide to this remarkable foundation,” said Nicole Butcher, director of marketing at Kahala Brands, parent company of Planet Smoothie. “We are hopeful that every dollar collected will contribute to a bigger change and will positively impact the lives of many of the families supported by Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation.”
