	'''{{w\|Alex's Lemonade Stand}}''' is a charity program founded by Alexandra "Alex" Scott to raise awareness of childhood cancer. One of the organization's business partners was [[Lego]], which used its recently-launched, female-targeted "Lego [[gal-pal\|Friends]]" line to help.

	According to the original event page, entitled "[[CWCville\|Cwcville]] Helps," Chris was to run the lemonade stand for three days--from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m on the weekend of 8-10 June 2012, more work than Chris had done since [[Cutco]] had ditched him nine years earlier. The stand was originally to be set up outside [[Chris's house]]; moved to the old [[Wikipedia:Circuit City Stores\|Circuit City]] building, 100 Albemarle Square, [[Charlottesville]]; and then moved again to [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church]]. The initial fundraising goal of $50 was quickly met after donations from Chris's friends, neighbors, and fans, as well as more sinister figures like [[Clyde Cash]] and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]]. As of 2 June, the total donated amount exceeded $150, but Chris never changed his original donation goal.

	'''Alex's Lemonade Stand''' is a charity program founded by [[wikipedia:Alex Scott (Alex's Lemonade Stand)\|Alexandra "Alex" Scott]] to raise awareness of childhood cancer. One of the organization's business partners was [[Lego]], which used its new "Lego [[gal-pal\|Friends]]" line to help. Chris, being the [[Tomgirl]] and fan of Lego that he is, set up a lemonade stand in [[June 2012]] in hopes of raising money in honor of his deceased [[Robert Chandler\|father]]. This event is notable for being one of the exceedingly rare times where Chris actually tries to do something [[Chris and his Ego\|selfless]] for once.

	On 4 [[February 2012]], a special "LEGO Friends Event at Toys 'R' Us Stores" was held, at which "children ages 5-up" would be able to physically build toy Lego lemonade stands to take home with them.<ref>[[http://www.alexslemonade.org/lego%C2%AE-friends-event-toysrus-stores]]</ref> Lego would donate one dollar to the charity for each one built. Being older than five, Chris participated and proudly told his [[Facebook]] friends about it.<ref>[[February 2012 Facebook Posts#Lego Lemonade Stand]]</ref> It was through this event that Chris learned of the option to host an actual lemonade stand, and he immediately registered one.

	According to the original event page, entitled "[[CWCville\|Cwcville]] Helps," Chris was to run the lemonade stand for three days--from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m on the weekend of 8-10 June 2012, more work than Chris had done since [[Cutco]] had ditched him nine years earlier. The stand was originally to be set up outside [[Chris's house]]; moved to the old [[Wikipedia:Circuit City Stores\|Circuit City]] building, 100 Albemarle Square, [[Charlottesville]]; and then moved again to [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church]]. The initial fundraising goal of $50 was quickly met after donations from Chris's friends, neighbors, and fans, as well as more sinister figures like [[Clyde Cash]] and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]]. As of 2 June, the total donated amount exceeded $150, but Chris never changed his original donation goal.
