From now until the end of August, The Lundmark Group will be hosting a lemonade stand at each of our open houses. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to charity. The Lundmark Group will match the total donated at each open house as well!
Last weekend my daughter and I were driving around Chester County putting up for sale signs and open house signs for a few of The Lundmark Group’s listings. When we went to one neighborhood in West Chester, the neighborhood children were outside coloring photos for donations. My 4-year-old daughter and I talked with the children and they drew a photo for her. We donated $5.00 to them for the photo and they gave my little girl $1.00 in return. I asked why they were giving us money back and they said, “Because you should always give back to the community.” That statement hit me hard. I was inspired to see what these kids were doing on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. They were spending their time doing something constructive and giving back to their community at the same time.
When my daughter and I got in the car to leave, we had a nice discussion about giving back and what it means to do that. My family and I donate to many charities but our children do not see us giving back in a sense that they can understand. I feel it is very important for our children to learn the value of giving but I have not always known when or where to start including them. If you’ve read any of my previous blog posts, you might have noticed that as a working mother, I am also constantly trying to find a good work/life balance with my children. I believe I’ve now found an answer.
Our first fund raiser will be held this Sunday April 26, 2015 at 601 Perry Drive in West Chester during our open house from 1:00-3:00. The Lundmark Group children will be outside serving lemonade and accepting donations for Alex’s Lemonade Stand! We are very excited about this and so are our children! Please come by and have some lemonade with us and give back at the same time. Today, kids all over the world keep Alex’s stand going by holding their own lemonade stands and sending their money to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. The great news is that because of all of this lemonade stand money, more kids are getting better from cancer every day.
If you cannot make it out on Sunday, please consider making a donation:
