Kids Who Do Chores

When the winter storms of 2007 left members of one of Parent Trust for Washington Children's Parent Groups short on fresh food for their families, a group of young friends set to work. They had the experience: 3 years ago they had formed a group that did neighborhood chores to raise money for different causes. This time, three girls decided to collect food in their neighborhood.

They pulled a children's wagon door-to-door asking for help for families in need. The neighbors were generous so the kids were able to deliver four bags of groceries to the PTWC families.

Lemonade Stand

8 year-old Isaac's story: "We started August 14th, 2007. Everybody was having a great time. We had eleven signs. Our [older friend] helped, but just a little bit. She gave us the A boards; we used them on the sidewalks on both ways pointing the direction. When cars came by we yelled 'Lemonade!' very very loud in the blowhorn.

Our grandma helped us a lot. She gave us $15.00 for our lemonade stand. We have $56.00 that we made for Parent Trust!"
