8-year-old’s lemonade stand in Anson raises $400 for flood victims

 A young girl in Anson turned a childhood tradition into a powerful way to give back to those in need. Eight-years-old, Laylah Rodriguez set up a lemonade stand in her neighborhood, but instead of keeping the profits for herself, she donated all $400 she raised to flood victims in Kerr County. The young entrepreneur mixed, measured, and poured her way to success, with a special focus on her favorite ingredient. Her favorite part was getting to see so many people and getting to help rebuild a camp that other little girls got to have a lot of fun at. “No one or no town deserves the flooding and devastation that Kerrville and the people there experienced,” Laylah said. “She is just happy that she is able to help out even a little bit,” mom Kristi stated. The child is planning to hold another lem onade fundraiser once the weather cools off. Her parents, Kristi Ratliff and P.J. Ro driguez, expressed pride in their daughter’s selfless decision.
