A nine-year-old boy named Grayson set up a lemonade stand to help achieve his traveling dreams. The boy was born blind and wanted an opportunity to see the world before he completely lost his vision.
Grayson started by setting up a lemonade stand in front of his house. At first, he was not making that many sales until Charlie, the founder of the Dream Machine Foundation, which specializes in helping people and communities raise money to reach their goals, showed up.
When Charlie saw the lemonade stand, he was impressed to see that a nine-year-old boy was running it, so he stopped and recorded himself reading Grayson’s sign and what he wanted to achieve with the money he raised from his sales.
The sign explained, “Hi, my name is Grayson. I am 9 years old, and I was born blind, but I do not let that stop me from doing everything you can.” It also mentioned that he loved music and traveling.
Immediately Charlie was touched by the boy’s sign and wanted to help him make more sales. But first, he offered to buy a lemonade for himself. Right after Charlie bought his lemonade, the young boy could not help but praise his own product, “It is perfect for a hot day, isn’t it?” he said proudly.According to reports, Grayson wanted to see the world one last time because he was about to lose sight completely. He has also undergone 33 surgeries, but he is willing to do everything to live a joyful life, and Charlie wanted as many people as possible to come together and help make his dream a reality
