The Palacios' cousin, Marcelo, lives in New Jersey, but the siblings said they wanted to find a way to help, KNXV reported.
"Basically (the boy) has been diagnosed with leukemia, and so my kids overheard my conversation with them and my son had this idea of doing a lemonade stand," Christian Palacios told KSAZ. "They made signs, they grabbed paint, they set up all these different ideas."
The siblings want to raise $500 for their cousin, the television station reported.
"We (hope to) reach our goal of money by the end of the summer to give him the money," Braden Palacios told KSAZ.
A GoFundMe page has been set up for Marcelo. More than $6,500 had been raised by early Sunday morning.
