The Simply Supper’s Lemonade Stand Day is a fun program that gives kids the opportunity to run a business, learn about entrepreneurship, philanthropy, marketing and customer service at a young age. Over the last eight years, $1.2 million has been raised and over 5,000 kids have participated in the annual event!

Simply Supper and the sponsors of Lemonade Stand Day provide all lemonade ingredients, cups, signage, t-shirts and training for kids to run their stands.

This year, we hope to scatter 350+ lemonade events all over the city to contribute to the excellence at the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation in support of the Stollery simulation program.

The Stollery Children’s Hospital is full of world-class experts. But even the best of the best need to practice their skills to be ready to handle whatever a Stollery kid may be facing.

That’s where the Stollery simulation program comes in. This program allows the Stollery’s medical experts to keep their skills sharp in a safe environment using life-like mannequins. But these aren’t your ordinary mannequins! They can talk, cry, breathe and go through medical situations that help prepare Stollery staff for real-life experiences.

To some, practice makes perfect. At the Stollery, perfect practice makes perfect. Your participation is helping to make sure Stollery staff are ready for anything, to help give kids the best chance to live a long and healthy life.

This event is planned and managed by Simply Supper and a volunteer committee with the proceeds of this event being donated to the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation.
