S&T Bank has made a 2024 donation of over $100,000 to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF).

ALSF was founded by four-year-old Alexandra “Alex” Scott, who was fighting cancer and wanted to raise money to find cures for all children with cancer. Her spirit and determination lived on after her passing, inspiring others to support her cause. To date, Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation has raised over $300 million to fund impactful research, raise awareness, support families, and empower everyone to help find a cure.

In 2023, the Bank began its relationship supporting ALSF, raising over $30,000 in select parts of its operating footprint. The Bank hosted its 2024 Lemonade Days fundraiser from Jun. 1-8. This year, S&T expanded what began as a local fundraising effort across the entire Bank and set the fundraising goal at $70,000. In one week, that goal was not only met but exceeded by more than $30,000.

CEO Chris McComish stated, “I am inspired by and extremely proud of our team that not only met but far surpassed our 2024 goal for ALSF. For over 120 years, our employees have maintained a steadfast commitment to community support and this fundraiser represents another example of how our employees embody our company values of making people our purpose, doing the right thing, and going above and beyond. We are so thankful to the members of the community and our customers for their tremendous support.”

“S&T Bank went above and beyond to raise money for kids fighting cancer,” said Liz Scott, ALSF’s Co-Executive Director and Mother to ALSF Founder, Alex Scott. “We’re grateful to their dedicated employees, customers, and those who live in the local community for their commitment to help fund a cure for childhood cancer. We hope to continue our meaningful partnership with them for many years to come.”

ALSF has evolved into a worldwide fundraising movement and the largest independent childhood cancer charity in the U.S. and is a leader in funding pediatric research projects across the globe, providing programs to families affected by childhood cancer.
