Nothing exudes the taste of summer quite like a cold glass of lemonade. What could be better? How about knowing that refreshing beverage is helping to fight childhood cancer in Central Virginia?
Anthem LemonAid is taking place this summer from Friday, July 20th – Sunday, July 22nd. Every participant will receive a FREE LemonAid kit and 100% of the proceeds benefit the oncology and hematology clinic at Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU.
Why participate in Anthem LemonAid?
Says local mom Yvonne, “I don’t know anyone personally that has had a battle with childhood cancer [but want my] daughter to learn to give back to others. She is only 6 years old, and has no idea there are children her age with [a] sickness like cancer. I want her to learn compassion and the value [of] helping others in need.”
The program is a great first lesson in philanthropy and teaches your child the importance of giving back to others. Cups of LemonAid may sell for a $1 but over the past ten years, those $1 cups have turned into $726,000!
Of course, let’s not forget that the program is FUN!!!
Your kids can set up stands in your neighborhood, at your church or at the community pool. If you’d like to see more foot traffic, register to host a stand outside the storefront of one of our retail partners: Walmart, Sam’s Club, Panera Bread or Kroger. Want to do a creative project in the kitchen with your kids?
Create your own lemonade recipe and show it off at the 17th Street Farmer’s Market!
