Here is a little back story was written by her father.
Last year when my daughter Charlotte Wilcox was 7-years old she asked me if I would help her with a lemonade stand to buy a toy. We saw a commercial about Kids with Cancer and she said she wanted to give them the money instead. Charlotte asked me what it was like when I had cancer. She was 6 months old when I had surgery for Colon cancer.
So we asked a friend Glen Hardy, owner of Hardy’s Restaurant and Pub if we could have it there. He was only too happy to help. Charlotte raised $3,000 with her Lemonade stand that went to St. Jude’s last year. It was covered by Channel 7 and The Enterprise. She asked if she could have it every year. When I explained to her about Cops For Kids With Cancer, she was so excited! She wears her CFKWC T-shirt so proudly.
She has designed her own logo for a t-shirt which is a little girl kicking a soccer ball right through a goal (the goal being cancer) killing cancer. Incorporating Cops For Kids With Cancer on the shirt for sale to raise money for this incredible cause.
Raffles, toe tapping music from the past and present, great company and lots of fun!
