Lemonaid
Scarsdale kids continued an annual tradition of selling lemonade and baked goods to raise money to fight poverty. On Saturday June 1, Robin Hood's youngest foot soldiers took to the streets selling lemonade, sharing staggering statistics about the problem of poverty, and informing their neighbors about the many ways Robin Hood helps New Yorkers in need.
There were many generous customers and parents who offered matching donations to supplement their kids' sales efforts. At the end of the day, the Och family graciously opened their backyard for a BBQ and an opportunity to count the proceeds. After the tabulation was complete, the proud participants found that they had raised $106,000 for the Robin Hood Foundation to help stop poverty.
