Jake & Emma’s Lemonade Stand A Benefit for St. Judes Children’s Hospital.
After 4 benefit's held to help the children and families at St. Jude the team at Jake & Emma’s Lemonade Stand would like to make their dream of going to St. Judes and meeting some of the children and families whom they are trying to help through their fundraising campaigns each September.
When Jake was 7 he saw some St. Judes commercials and wondered about the children, why they were sick.
When we explained he became emotional and wanted to help but didn’t know how he could being that he was a small child himself. He thought about a way and came up with a lemonade stand . Jake wanted it his birthday in September, but we ended up choosing the first Sunday in September which happens to be childhood cancer awareness month.
That’s when a group of family and friends came together to make the lemonade stand happen. We didn’t know what to except and set the goal for $300.00 . We began campaigning weeks ahead of the actually event. To our surprise they raised the $300.00 in a matter of days. Event day came and they raised an additional 603.00. Once we announced the total more donation’s came in making the grand total $1,000.00. We were all over the moon especially after the letter from St. Judes with the recipients story.
Each year’s stand is dedicated to a local child and their journey whether they go to St. Judes or not. Jake wanted to get their stories to the public to help share their battles and helping the lemonade stand helps a child somewhere fight their battles too.
When Jake was asked by a local news station why did he want to do this? Jake said “ because I want to help stop the sickness.” His sister Emma is by his side helping cheer him and all of those who show up to help the cause.
Every year they try to raise more money than the year before. In total they have raised just under $7,000.00.
The team at Jake & Emma’s Lemonade Stand want to raise money this year to help Jake and Emma dream of meeting some the children and families of St. Judes come true.
Please help support their dream and donate, share.
Thank you, from the team at Jake & Emma’s Lemonade Stand.
