While most kids enjoy spending hot summer days at the pool, one group of enterprising Hanover Township kids is busily raising money for different causes at a bi-weekly ice cream float stand off of Macada Road. With ice cream in one hand and soda in another, they're making money. They've raised $82 for animal shelter Peaceable Kingdom a few weeks ago, and another $117 for diabetes research on the hottest day in July. The rain forests are next.

The masterminds behind this operation are Marina Taddeo and Tanaya Mukherhjee. Marino's father suffers from diabetes.

"I get upset when the ambulance comes," she explained. Other young philanthropists include Tanaya's sister Trisha and brothers Chase and Jackson Barlok.

Asked whether they might mix things up with a lemonade stand or a kissing stand for the boys, Marina flatly said "No."

"That would be gross," she said.
