A Kid Set Up a Free Lemonade Stand. What Happened by Sundown Left Grown Adults in Tears

There was no price. That was the whole idea.

Most stands charge a coin or two. This one had a hand-drawn sign that simply read, take one, you look like you need it.

The child had noticed the grown-ups on the street always seemed tired, so he decided to give the lemonade away for free.

One by one, people stopped. Some smiled, some laughed, and more than a few quietly wiped their eyes over a paper cup.

By evening the jar wasn't for money. It had filled with notes strangers left for each other, telling one another to keep going.
