The small people and I held a Lemonade Stand to Fight Child Hunger – this is our first contribution to the Child Hunger Ends Here Campaign…. I have to confess, I hoped we would make $25. (which, by the way – would be amazing since $1 = 7 meals so 175 meals) We did it and MY KIDS LEARNED…. I hope this makes you smile: (and maybe inspires you to do something similar)
You’ve likely heard me talk about the statistics before – but I think it is important to keep saying it : There are nearly 17 million kids in this country who are hungry. That doesn’t mean they are homeless – they could be sitting in class next to your kids and mine. When they go home at the end of the day – they don’t know IF there will be dinner.
These are the kids we are helping when we do a rally like this Lemonade Stand. The $85 we raised will be donated online through Child Hunger Ends Here and it will stay right here in my local community. To learn more about how you can help – read about my commitment or head to Child Hunger Ends Here to plan your own rally.
You know what? Even spreading the word helps. So, thank you.
