PHOTOS: Lemon Ball 2017

For the 11th year in a row, the Lemon Ball, a gala benefiting Alex’s Lemonade Stand, took place at The Marriott Downtown in Philadelphia. The evening included stories from childhood cancer heroes, silent auctions, delectable food and dancing.

Over $840,000 was raised for Alex’s Lemonade Stand by the end of the night in their crusade to fund research and find cures for children battling cancer.
