Alex's Lemonade Stand is a charity program that was set up by Lego in conjunction with their "Friends" theme, which is intended for little girls. Chris, being the Tomgirl and fan of Lego that he is, has pledged to set up a lemonade stand in hopes of raising money for his "father who died of cancer", despite the fact Bob actually died of heart failure. Although his reasoning for creating the stand is still unclear, he may have thought that the money would go to him so he could buy more vidya.
The event
According to the event page, entitled "Cwcville Helps", Chris will be running a lemonade stand for all three days of the event - from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m on Friday, June 8 through Sunday, June 10, 2012, more work than Chris has done since Cutco ditched him nine years ago. The stand was originally to be set up outside Chris's house, but has since moved to the old Circuit City building, 100 Albemarle Square, Charlottesville. The initial fundraising goal of US$50 was quickly met after donations from Chris's friends, neighbors and fans, as well as some more sinister figures, such as Clyde Cash and the Man in the Pickle Suit. As of February 24, the total amount of donations exceeded $150, although Chris has not changed his original donation goal.
The page later became "access denied", Chris apparently deciding that raising money for dying children wasn't worth the stress of hearing mean things from trolls.
