Lemonade Day

Eli Escobar interviewed Executive Director for Lemonade Day, Bailey Kinney. Lemonade Day is a fun, experiential program that teaches youth how to start, own and operate their very own business - a lemonade stand. Each year, in participating cities, youth have the opportunity to experience entrepreneurship by setting up their business during their city's community-wide Lemonade Day. Lemonade day originated in Houston and now is in many cities throughout the country.   Lemonade Day will take place the first weekend in May.  Lemonade Day was founded on an important American principle that entrepreneurs take risks, believing they can realize their dream if they work hard, take responsibility and act as good stewards of their resources. Today’s youth – at the national and international level – share that optimism but lack the life skills, mentorship and real-world experience necessary to be successful.
