Lemonade stand in Shelton raises $1,500 for cancer hospital

Kudos go out today to three Shelton girls who ran a lemonade stand Saturday and raised money for an important cause.

Twins Alex and Emma D'Amico, 11, and their friend, Megan Loiacano, 10, collected more than $1,500 in donations. The money will go to Smilow Cancer Hospital, a part of Yale New Haven Children's Hospital.

Their parents must be quite proud of them! Great job!
