With funding from the Foundation, University School’s Entrepreneur Institute, led by Greg Malkin, is spearheading the initiative this year. Many new participants and partners have joined the program. Lemonade Day Northeast Ohio was introduced in 2011, with four schools participating. In 2012, 19 schools, districts, and organizations representing more than 1,300 students have formally committed to participate, including schools in Akron, Hudson, Canton, Youngstown, and Lakewood, and such organizations as the Girl Scouts of North East Ohio, Junior Achievement, and the University Park Alliance.
Mr. Malkin secured several important sponsorships throughout the region in support of Lemonade Day Northeast Ohio. The Knight Foundation partnered with the University Park Alliance to bring Lemonade Day to the University Park neighborhood in Akron. Kovach Design provided valuable graphic design services for the Lemonade Day brochure, letterhead, and business cards. Heinen’s Fine Foods signed on as a corporate sponsor: every participating student’s Lemonade Day backpack includes coupons for discounts on lemonade supplies purchased at any Heinen’s location. The Hudson Economic Development Corporation provided funding for the Lemonade Day curriculum for all fifth graders in the Hudson district, and Hudson Mayor William A. Currin issued a proclamation that May is “Lemonade Day Month.” We are extremely grateful for the regional community’s support of this program.
With so many districts and organizations participating, Lemonade Day Northeast Ohio will span every weekend in May, including Memorial Day weekend. Look for the young entrepreneurs in your community and support their efforts by sampling their lemonade recipes on these days:
