Turning lemons into hope at lemonade stand in Scranton
SCRANTON, LACKAWANNA COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — A Pittston woman is turning lemons into hope. Lily Struzzieri set up a lemonade stand inside the Marketplace at Steamtown. Her stand is part of a national effort with Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation to raise money for childhood cancer research and awareness.
Struzzieri brought in around $250 and says she's just getting started.
She's serving up sweet drinks with an even sweeter goal: making a difference right here in her community.

'I really enjoy fundraising. It's really important to me to do that, so I'm just really excited to see how much money we can raise,' Pittston resident Lily Dtruzzieri said.
'It's great to see young people, you know, I mean I want wanna be a part of this. You know, I think our area here goes above and beyond, and any form of cancer, any form of cancer, cancer research,' Marsha Junz from Dunmore told 28/22 News.
Struzzieri says she planned to keep pouring until the last cup, noting that this weekend is not the only time she plans to do her cups for a cause.
She plans to sell lemonade at Nay Aug Park on July 5, weather permitting.
