Thank you to all who made it out Sunday afternoon for William's Lemonade Stand for a Great Cause! You amazed us as you delivered LOTS of school supplies, book bags, and uniforms for A Child's Place. We actually filled the back trailer of our John Deer with all of the supplies you brought so thank you!We collected $530 for A Child's Place to purchase uniforms and supplies which are desperately needed this week as school begins.William served over 6 gallons of cold lemonade and many cookies to thirsty children and adults who stopped by. Some kids stayed and played ball in the front yard for a while...
We even had cars lined up like a drive through who filed along like a carpool line!
We had two very excited 5 year old helpers who ate and drank more than they served.
The only difficult part was controlling the number of cookies my own children ate! Needless to say they did not eat a great dinner last night!
William had a big smile as we delivered it all today to A Child's Place.
They were thrilled with the donation and it was certainly a great way to end the summer and begin the school year, knowing we helped children in need. It also is a great reminder of the many blessings we have and often take for granted. I pray that each of your children, that all of our children, have a safe and wonderful school year!
Blessings,
Caroline
