Lemonade enterprises can be lucrative.

We decided to grab a piece of the market in lemonade sales in our neighborhood. Orrin and his friend, Aaron, were the entrepreneurs and small business owners and hired Amara and Aleya as their first employees. I became the supplier and CEO, but non-profit.

"LEM-O-NADE! Get your fresh-squeezed LEM-O-NADE!

It turned out to be a great day of sales. Supplies cost about $3 and they made $18 for two hours of work. Not bad. We'll likely do it again soon. But Orrin plans for some lay-offs so he has a greater profit margin.
