Lemonade Day is a
free citywide community educational program designed to teach youth how
to start, own and operate their own business - a lemonade
stand. This May, tens of thousands of kids will set up lemonade
stands across the entire Chicago area, providing businesses and
families the unique opportunity to come together to help our next
generation learn essential entrepreneurial skills and valuable life
lessons.
Lemonade
Day forges productive relationships between youth, schools, community
groups, and businesses. Community leaders are impressed by
Lemonade Day's positive, upbeat message, and businesses recognize the
long-term benefits of building a core of youth inspired and transformed
by their work experience. Lemonade Day reaches youth from
every demographic all over the community.
For
Lemonade Day to be a huge success in each city, we need the business
community, city leaders, and youth-serving organizations to join forces
for one common goal: to empower and equip our youth with the tools to
succeed.
Your business
or organization can help make a positive impact on your area's youth!
Become a local sponsor, and help ensure Lemonade Day is completely free
for youth, schools and community organizations.
For more
information on Lemonade Day, please visit www.LemonadeDay.org. To discuss how you
can get involved, please contact Executive Director, Julie Eberly at Jeberly@Prepared4Life.org
