The idea for a lemonade stand fundraising event for the UMMC Foundation came about after campaign volunteers looked across Centennial Park one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Our Co-Chairs are Maddie and Patrick Casey. Patrick sent in a donation to the hospital last December and I though what a great idea to have Patrick Co-Chair this and help get families and other kids involved in giving back to the community,” says Lori Aratari, Senior Development Officer for Rochester Regional Health\/UMMC Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This is not the first time we have done something like this,” says Maddie Casey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maddie,11, and Patrick,10, have a traveling lemonade stand and have raised funds for the Veteran’s Home and a Cancer Research Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We’ve done five lemonade stands over the years and one traveling stand, we started when we were 6 or 7 years old,” says Patrick. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were about 13 lemonade stands at the first ever UMMC Foundation Lemonade Stand fundraiser. The Foundation was looking to raise about $4,000 for the UMMC Maternity Fund that will be used to purchase baby swaddles for every baby that is born at UMMC. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aratari says there are 500 babies born at UMMC each year. Before the event in Centennial Park on Thursday evening, $3600 was raised through the Foundation’s “Just Giving” platform, with grandparents, aunts and uncles donating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I thought the date was significant, June 23rd, because today is the last day of school for the kids, so what a great way for them to start the summer and learn about giving back to the community. For the hospital, we’re not anything without community support.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
