Answer 1

I am sorry about your friend1 Perhaps a good start will be to go to your locale Cancer society and offer to volunteer...take care

Answer 2

I think that it is great that you want to help.  Most of the time people donate or volunteer for organizations that they have a connection to or identify with....sounds like this is the case.  I'm so sorry.

I do have to say that you are better of joining up with a local organization in town.  Be aware that usually the minimum age is 16 but nonprofits often have special events or days that are geared towards family that are open to everyone.

Call your local United Way agency or check out www.volunteermatch.org to find organizations in your area that you could join up with.

However, if you are set on a stand, I think that lemondade is a great idea!  You're in Texas though so some Sweet Tea might do the trick too!
