Jay Scott

Jay Scott is the Co-Executive Director of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded by his daughter, Alexandra “Alex” Scott. When Alex decided to hold a lemonade stand to help doctors find new treatments and ultimately a cure for all childhood cancers, including her own, Jay and his wife Liz supported Alex’s mission every step of the way. After cancer took Alex’s life they established the Foundation to continue the work Alex started and find a cure for all childhood cancers.

Under Jay’s leadership, the Foundation has experienced dramatic growth since 2005, raising more than $100 million and funding over 500 childhood cancer research projects in North America.
