Ten-year-old Josie Larson of Monticello, Minnesota, used her lemonade stand to raise more than $1,600 for her local police department to buy body armor for working dogs.
In August, Josie was watching a television show about police dogs when she saw a tragic story about a canine who was stabbed in the line of duty while protecting its handler, according toShe was so moved by the sad story that she decided to set up a lemonade stand in front of her house and allocate all of the proceeds to purchasing dog body armor for her local police department.
Working from a card table in front of her house, Josie sold lemonade, cookies and donuts to locals who wanted to help out the hard-working dogs. When people outside of the Monticello area wanted to pitch in, her mother set up a GoFundMe so they could donate remotely.
