Lemon-Aid is a fundraiser for “Doctors Without Borders”
May 22, 10:00am–3:00pm
Circle Church, 111 Errett Circle, Santa Cruz

Here is the inspiring history of this event:
Former homeschooling student, Franziska Monahan, created Lemon-Aid up in San Lorenzo Valley 10 years ago.
She set up a card table and made a pitcher of lemonade and within a few hours of work earned $20!
Her parents felt she needed to pick a charity and donate the proceeds. She donated all of her earnings to “The Heifer Project,” a charity that provides livestock to people in need worldwide. Her $20 was enough to buy a flock of chickens. This charitable cause inspired young Franny to create Lemon-Aid complete with a mini-carnival, petting zoo, and awesome rummage sale.
After 10 years and 10 Lemon-Aid fundraisers up in San Lorenzo Valley, Franny brought Lemon-Aid to Santa Cruz.

Last year, AFE middle schoolers held Lemon-Aid downtown Santa Cruz and raised $1267 for Doctors without Borders!
This year, the event will take place this Saturday May 22, from 10:00am–3:00pm at the Circle Church.
