Ginette Bott, Chief Marketing Officer of the Utah Food Bank, issued her congratulations in a statement she shared with the Upbeat. We are always so thrilled when children recognize that they have the ability to help people in need. It is very important that all family members work together to understand how they can help in the fight against hunger. We hope the kids can turn their lemonade stand into a full-time summer business venture to help kids in Utah. Thanks and congratulations to these young entrepreneurs."
