Ohio girl raised $768 at lemonade stand; 8 years later, nonprofit topped $5 million

Payton Obert, a former patient at Cincinnati Children's Hospital in Ohio, started a lemonade stand to help children in distress, initially raising $768.

Over the course of eight years, that simple venture has grown into a nonprofit organization named Payton's Lemonade Stand. The initiative has successfully amassed over $5 million to support various children's charities and supply toys.
