8-year-old boy donates every cent from his lemonade stand to help animals in need.
Little Henry Bryant of Southgate, Michigan, has a huge heart for dogs and cats in need, as since the age of 6, he has raised money for local animal shelters to provide medical care for them.
To date, he has raised $15,000!
"I want all dogs to have a home and to have a good life," he told 7News Detroit.

Henry has captured the hearts of the greater Southgate community as his customers include not only friends and family, but the local fire station and the Iron Mustangs Motorcycle Club.
Earlier this year, Henry's own dog Pickles got very sick, and it was through widespread donations he had the money for medical care to nurse Pickles back to good health.
This season, Henry's lemonade flavors are regular, strawberry and Pickle's Punch, which Henry's mother assures us honors Pickles the dog and does not taste like pickles.
And whenever someone buys a lemonade, they see photos of the dogs they are rescuing. Elvis, Pop Tart, Melba and others are looking right back at them.

So what does Henry charge? "The donations can be any price," he told 7News Detroit.
And people open their wallets. For what Henry is doing for animals in need, is priceless.
What are his future plans? "I want to be a veterinarian," Henry said.
