The Lemonade Day Project

(Community Matters) Joe & Andra Liemandt gathered several of us yesterday, introducing us to the Lemonade Day Project.

It’s an entrepreneurial & philanthropy training program for children. Last year, kids in Houston ran over 11,000 lemonade stands in a single day, raising over $1,300,000 and donating over $220,000 to charity. 75% of the kids fully paid back their investors, and lots of other impressive statistics.

Well, how can you say no to that? The guests were equally impressed. So, the Entrepreneurs Foundation will be taking on this project for this year – May 3 – with Joe & Andra as major sponsors, our dear friend Jack McDonald is equally impressed and maybe we’ll be able to engage PeopleFund as well as lots of other Austin sponsors & partners. now, umm, 3 months . . . . Marion?
