This is a pretty inspirational article.
It's about a little girl and her friends who decided to set up a lemonade stand to raise money for children in Africa.

But Japnaam Kaur isn't like other children.

Since age four or five, she has asked her parents to choose channels

program ends, she always says the same thing: "I want to help them."
