Lemonade stand raises money for cancer research
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. -- Taking lemons and turning them into lemonade.
Sharon and Brad Elias of St. Augustine have two boys, Josh, 8, and Bradley, 11.
Sharon Elias' friend suggested the boys get involved with something called Alex's Lemonade Stand.
"It's something easy kids can do to help other kids," Elias noted.
The idea is simple. Make some lemonade, sell it, and the money raised goes toward helping kids with cancer.
Bradley smiled and said, "I thought it would be really fun, and I knew we'd raise money for pediatric cancer research. So that made it even better."
Over the weekend at the Palencia Street Fair, the Elias family held their fourth Alex's Lemonade Stand.
