A little girl in Hurst can close down her lemonade stand after a generous donation.
10-year-old girl Kaitlyn Chiles and her friend, 11-year-old Kaity Tracy, were selling lemonade and fruit punch on the corner of West Bedford Road and Norwood Drive to help Kaitlyn's parents pay for a new A/C unit.
"It broke down, so, I'm like, 'Well, since y'all don't have a lot of money, I'm going to just help out,'" Kaitlyn said. "So even if my parents say no, I'm going to help out."
A small drink went for 50 cents, and a large glass sold for $1.
Customers who stopped by the booth said they are proud of the girls' entrepreneurial spirit.
"That's a kid that's working for her money," Gilbert Dias said. Dias purchased four glasses of lemonade and fruit punch for co-workers.
Dias planned to return for more drinks on Wednesday, but on Wednesday afternoon the girls found out they could close down their lemonade stand.
