An 8-year old from Plainville whose lemonade stand raised over $5,000 last year for the Make-A-Wish Foundation plans to double his donation and raise $10,000 more.
Nico Fasold, founder of Nico’s Lemonade Stand, raised more than five times his goal of $1,000 last year. Donations poured in, and the $5,051 he collected was enough to send a young patient and his family to Disney World.
Fasold donates his proceeds to Make-A-Wish, “because it helps kids dreams come true,” he said. Over the past three years, Fasold has raised almost $6,000 for children with life-threatening medical conditions.
Fasold will hold his fourth annual lemonade stand July 13 outside his home at 109 Northwest Drive, Plainville.
