During the last week of summer, when kids are enjoying their last hours of freedom before school begins, there was a lemonade stand set up at the Estates of Princeton Junction. The event was organized by Megan Leung, Kush Bansal, and Anisha Iyers, all seventh grade students at Community Middle School who have families impacted by cancer.
They recruited several younger kids, including their siblings, to join them in selling lemonade to raise funds for cancer organizations. Participants included Shibani Dagalur, Kashvi Bansal, Natalie Leung, Vineet Chovatia, Shaunak Dagalur, Varun Chovatia, and Matthew Hong.
The young people were active for several days and even mobilized their stand by putting it on a wagon. They raised $173 to donate to Pancan.Org, with a focus on pancreatic cancer, and Lungcancer.org, with a focus on lung cancer.
