Animal Radio heard about him, and while interviewing him, learned about his celebrity dog collar auction. With their help and the donation of 100 dog collars from Bamboo, the collars were signed by celebrities and went up for auction only on Ebays Charity site Givingworks. Again, 100% was donated to Canine Companions for Independence. The auction was a huge success, with celebrities from all over, including sports figures, musicians, and even a president, many whom he met and asked personally to sign a collar for his charity auction. He'll be the first to tell you it was a lot of work. Kyle's auctions to assist CCI has now become an annual event. Now a little older, the lemonade stand comes out not as much, but not his ever continued efforts of always thinking of creative ideas of how to make a difference and assist the charity he so believes in. He hoped to reach his goal of making it to $50,000. With his auction, along with a matching donor who recognized his hard efforts,as well as an unexpected local hero award for his charity work which donated directly to CCI in his honor, Kyle surpassed his goal and has helped to assist in raising over $135,000. Now, with a new goal, he hopes one day reach $200,000 with his efforts. Again, he always hopes to reach his goal, but his ultimate goal is to make more people aware of Canine Companions for Independence. Getting older, rather than been seen with the now famous lemonade stand, his concentration is to continue to make more awareness for Canine Companions for Independence with inventive ideas and his annual (sometimes bi-annual) auctions. Now, at age 14, he hopes to one day pass down his lemonade legacy to younger kids who want to help CCI, eventually having a rolling Kyle's Lemonade stand  /100% to assist Canine Companions for Independence  in each state. He credits his suceess and his efforts for the past 7 years with his trademark motto, "You're never to little to make a difference".
