Lemonade Day was launched by the Houston-based non-profit organization, Prepared 4 Life in 2007. We are happy to say that Lemonade Day Modesto has been around since 2012 and reaching more kids each year! This free program for kids provides K-12 youth with the educational tools they need to start, own and operate their very own lemonade stands. Youth learn how to create budgets, secure investors, select a site, serve customers, set profit-making goals, repay investors, and give back to the community. By starting their own business, kids gain valuable entrepreneurial skills infused with life skills such as character development, empowerment, and financial freedom. Lemonade Day sets them on a path of financial learning and goal setting that can continue throughout their lives.
