What is a Lemonade Stand?"Lemonade Stands" are craft booths with items created and sold by upper school students to benefit the charity of their choice.
Girls can think up an item or service to sell, or even a game to host at the fair. Through this fun event, students are encouraged to see how they can make a difference 'One Lemonade Stand at a Time'.
In 2009 the girls raised over $4,000 for their individual charities!
Some of the charities helped last year were:
Maya Educational Foundation House of Hope
World Wildlife Fund Maasai Education Discovery
Friends of the Sea Otters Locks of Love
New England Park Zoo Make a Wish
Heifer Project UNICEF
Esperanza Academy of Lawrence Sudanese Education Fund
Programme of Belize Gaining Ground
Buddy Dog Humane Society Galapagos Conservancy
Juvenile Diabetes Reseach Foundation Save A Dog Inc.
Girls are asked to fill out a business plan for their stand.
