Welcome to Lemonade Day Houston

What is Lemonade Day?

Lemonade Day is a FUN, FREE, community wide, educational initiative where KIDS learn to start, own and operate their own business.

Kids of all ages learn to set goals, develop a business plan, establish a budget, seek investors, provide customer service, and give back to their community.
 

Lemonade Day is Simple

• First, kids register, with a caring adult, and receive a bright yellow backpack which contains an informational workbook for the child and the caring adult. These books will outline the steps necessary to have a successful lemonade stand.
• Sunday, May 2, 2010 is the "offical" Lemonade Day. Each young entrepreneur will set up their lemonade stand and sell, sell, sell their lemonade!
• Finally, and best of all the young entrepreneurs will get to keep the money they make!

Community Event

• Lemonade Day involves the entire community.
• We partner with Youth Organizations, Schools, Churchs and Businesses to register kids for Lemonade Day and to help distribute backpacks.
• Volunteers are needed to stuff backpacks, distribute the backpacks, and to sign kids up at numerous events throughout Houston.
• Sponsors and Donors are needed to help with the costs.
• Customers buying lemonade is another great way to help out. 

Lessons Learned

As the kids are having fun experimenting with lemonade recipes, designing and crafting a lemonade stand and selling lemonade to friends and neighbors they are learning entrepreneurial skills necessary to be successful in the future.
