When things aren't going so great, there's a saying to encourage us: when life gives you lemons, make lemonade(柠檬饮料).

That's what 15--year-old Zack Francom has been doing in the past nine years. He does that to improve the lives of people in developing countries. They need wheelchairs but don't have money for there.

It all started in 2010. His school held a fundraiser(募捐会)to raise $86 to buy a wheelchair for a charity. Although Zack was only 6 years old then, he wanted to keep the-fundraising going.

"I thought, `What if I couldn't walk or run or ride my bike? What would that be like?' I wanted to help make life easier for those who couldn't walk or run and didn't have money for a wheelchair to help them get around," he said..

Now hundreds of people line up in April to buy lemonade from Zack's store. In 2014 he sold a lot of lemonade, raising $5,300. With that money he was able to buy 37 wheelchairs at a cost of $143 each and ship them to places like Guam and Guatemala, where a wheelchair can cost more than a person would make in one year!

Lots of people in poor countries have to pull themselves around with their hands and crawl (爬行)to get around, because wheelchairs are too expensive for them.
