School Updates!


Wow! We are closing in on the end of Week One for Alex's Virtual Lemonade Stand 2010. Can you believe it?

Our schools have been up to some GREAT things! Hopewell Elementary School sold lemonade during their three lunch periods today. A cup of lemonade was sold for $1.00, and many students donated more than a $1.00 for the cup of lemonade. Some students wore yellow, and everyone that donated received a sticker that read, "I supported Alex's Lemonade Stand." They also had parent volunteers helping! They sold 285 cups of lemonade and raised $332.68. It was a great start to their two day lemonade stand!

Hopewell Memorial Junior High School is having a great week, too. They had a '2 for Tuesday' deal where every cup purchased for $1 came with a free refill. They also had a Cinco de Mayo special during lunches on Wednesday. Their total for Tuesday and Wednesday? 140 cups and $100.15!

On May 1, 2010 4th grade students from South Lebanon Elementary School hosted an Alex's Lemonade Stand at their school's Fun Fair. Students signed up to work 1/2 hour shifts during the Fun Fair. They sold 350 cups of lemonade. Their stand raised $642 and their PTP matched the earnings for a grand total of $1284.

Our grand reported total so far is $3,655.29. Have you reported your school's events yet through our online form?

A friendly reminder that poster contest entries are due tomorrow! And don't forget to take a look at the Make a Difference Commercials!
