Power Home Remodeling Group Names June Second Annual 'Power Month' For Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation

CHESTER, Pa., June 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --Power Home Remodeling Group, one of the nation's largest home remodeling companies, is holding its second annual company-wide "Power Month for Alex's" initiative throughout the month of June to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF), one of the leading foundations for pediatric cancer research. To help raise funds and complement ALSF's National Lemonade Days initiative in June, Power will host a series of events and fundraisers throughout the month within each of the eight markets it offers home improvement services. Since being named a national corporate sponsor for ALSF in April 2011, Power has raised more than $300,000 for the Foundation to date.

"We were incredibly proud to introduce our employees and customers to the ALSF mission during last year's 'Power Month for Alex's,' and we can't wait to reenergize them around this great cause again this June," says Corey Schiller, Power's chief executive officer. "Helping support ALSF's National Lemonade Days by devoting an entire month to the cause is a great opportunity for us to further engage with our employees and customers and help raise awareness of pediatric cancer by bringing Alex's incredible and courageous story into new communities across the country. Our employees will proudly distribute information about the Foundation to homeowners, take part in office lemonade stands, and coordinate 5K and golf outing events later this year to raise awareness of ALSF's mission."

Power Month for Alex's will kick off on Tuesday, June 4 with events at each of the company's eight regional offices featuring speakers to energize employees, such as Alex's Hero Families and pediatric cancer researchers who have worked directly with ALSF. Power's CEO Corey Schiller will welcome Liz Scott, Alex's mom and Co-Executive Director for ALSF at the company's headquarters in Chester, PA to personally address employees there and empower them to spread the Foundation's message through their various fundraising and awareness activities throughout Power Month and the remainder of the year.

In addition, the Power Month for Alex's initiative will include a variety of employee and customer components such as:

Liz Scott added, "We are so pleased to have the continuing support of Power Home Remodeling Group. Power has been dedicated to helping us find a cure for all kids with cancer since first coming on board, and their month-long campaign is only further evidence of their commitment to a cure."
