Well go check your balance... and see if it worked! I sent her some tip jar money since I'm not buying lemonade! :lol:

Awesome, it worked!

Ditto!

Vol Texan, I just sent what my wife and I can afford right now. We'd love to meet you and your amazing daughter in person, but we're in Dallas. A drive to H-Town is out of the question for us; At least for now.

Again, thanks, and it did work!

I really did post this hoping to serve some lemonade to my fellow west Houston shooters. I didn't expect to get online donations, but I really want to thank each of you for your help.

I'm looking forward to this weekend, and hope we're able to buy lots of the units for them!

This is getting interesting.

KHOU is planning to interview her this afternoon, and KPRC will probably come visit the stand tomorrow.

We might reach a bigger goal than expected!

Can you tell us which Kroger location? I didn't see it in the thread and would like to support your daughter's efforts.

Just saw it on Channel 11 news! They had lots of praise for your daughter! Hopefully her stand will be mobbed with thirsty donors!

Yep, we just saw it also. The reporter was really generous with his commentary. Here's a link to it:

Great job!! You have a wonderful daughter. Keep us updated on how her lemonade stand does. I'm betting she will make enough to buy the coolers for all of them!
