Babson College is be bringing Lemonade Day to Boston on May 1, 2011. Lemonade Day is a free, community-wide educational initiative designed to teach children how to start, own and operate their own business – a lemonade stand.  The success of Lemonade Day relies on all members of the community coming together for a common purpose – to train the next generation of entrepreneurs, civic leaders and engaged citizens.  Lemonade Day makes learning fun and relevant; schooling becomes an enterprise and families who are accustomed to being on the receiving end of goods and services are able to share with others.

The goal is to provide 5,000 youth with the opportunity to benefit from the program. Visit  http://www.lemonadeday.org  for more information.
