Local Lemonade Stand Benefits Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

Maci Drewry of Tyler was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at three years old, and her passion to find a cure has resulted in a series of fund-raising efforts including a lemonade stand set up today in front of The Market near Fresh by Brookshire's from 12 p.m. - 3 p.m.

Maci and her friends sell a cup of lemonade for 50 cents, but customers are welcome to donate any amount they wish to the cause. All of the proceeds raised will be donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Maci also works to raise funds with the Great Strides walk held annually in Tyler. This year's walk will take place on September 27th at Bergfeld Park.
