On March 6, lemonade stands will be set up in various parts of the Phoenix area as part of the Great Arizona Lemonade Stand. The event will benefit an organization whose mission is to help permanently disabled children in Arizona, as well as their families. Reporting by FOX 10’s Danielle Miller.
PHOENIX – On March 6, Phoenix-area residents can grab a cool, refreshing cup of lemonade, as lemonade stands will be popping up all over the state, for a good cause.
The Great Arizona Lemonade Stand is an event that will benefit an organization called “Something So Worth It”. According to its website, the organization “empowers children with permanent disabilities and their families in Arizona from diagnosis, through adversity, and beyond.”
The organization was founded by Bryce and Allison Lefebre.
“We started three years ago because we have two sons with spina bifida, and we felt we could take the nuggets we learned with our experiences and pass them on,” Allison said. “Our mission is to create engaging, engaging activities for kids. They’re always presented as sad stories, and we tell them, ‘No. We can feature you for your strengths.'”
Booths will be set up throughout the Phoenix area, and all donations will go directly to the organization to help children with disabilities, as well as their caregivers.
“March 6, 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.,” Allison said. “All our volunteers in the Valley have a stand that day”,
There are still lemonade kits available for those wishing to host a stand on March 6th.
