7-year-old raises nearly $10,000 for mother's headstone with lemonade stand

• An Alabama girl set up a lemonade stand to raise money for her mother's headstone.
• After the story went viral, community members and monument companies offered support and donations.
• The funds raised, totaling nearly $10,000, will cover the headstone and other funeral expenses.

The local community of Scottsboro in Jackson County, Alabama, has rallied around seven-year-old Emouree Johnson's lemonade stand for a special reason.

Emouree's efforts aren't just about making pocket money: she's attempting to raise funds to pay for her late mother's headstone.

Emouree's mother, Karli Bordner, died unexpectedly in March this year at just 29 years of age, the family told WAFF48 news.
