Our Makin' Lemonade Story

Our efforts began during the COVID-19 pandemic, as we came together from different parts of the nation and succeeded in engaging our individual communities. We raised over $125,000 for COVID-19 relief, benefitting the CDC Foundation, Direct Relief Fund, and Feeding America. We will continue to utilize our amazing team around the country to support young adults of our generation and the next in their efforts to give back to their communities.
