LINDENHURST, NY - A 5-year-old Lindenhurst boy exceeded his expectations during his lemonade stand fundraiser this past weekend.

Jayden Magliaro hosted the event to raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project, with help from his parents, at his Lindenhurst home on Saturday.

He was just hoping to raise more than last year, when he donated over $700 to the foundation.

However Jayden and his mother, Donna Magliaro, never expected to raise over 5 times that this year.
