The work of Lemonade for Love kid fundraisers has been recognized by City officials. The kids to raise awareness of their 9th annual drive was recognized by members of the Etobicoke York Community council last month.
This child-driven, parent-supported fundraising event focuses on kids helping kids.
Lemonade for Love started in 2014 as a small lemonade stand in a front yard in Etobicoke. It has since grown into a well-attended community event held each June at Fairfield Park.
The group has raised and reinvested over $200,000 back into our local community through the #CaptainXavierFund at Silver Creek Preschool for children with special needs in Etobicoke.
This fund provides scholarships to help families send their children to Silver Creek Preschool as well as offers financial support to families at Silver Creek who may need assistance with the cost of medical devices, equipment or aids.
The fundraiser takes place on June 21 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Fairfield Park, on Lothian Avenue.
