Kyle Orent is a 9-year-old from Northport, New York who raised more than $20,000 selling lemonade. He didn’t stop there.
His next endeavor was to auction off celebrity-autographed dog collars (donated by Bamboo). Some of the celebrities that autographed those collars were Leslie Nielson, Betty White, Sheena Easton, Joe Namath, Donald Trump, Billy Joel and Dean Koontz (whose collars collected the highest bid) to name a few. He raised over $5,000 for his collars and was matched by a generous donation from someone who wished to remain anonymous, raising the total to $10,300.
Kyle then donated it all, $30,300, to Canine Companions for Animals. When asked why he chose this charity, Kyle says he is a big animal lover and likes how these animals have been trained to assist their humans and wants to help.
It was a pleasure working with this child whose love for the animals is so obvious. We only hope to be involved in his next endeavor. Cheers to you Kyle!
