We hope you will join us this summer as Big Blue Marble Academy fights childhood cancer, one cup at a time, alongside Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation! Starting this week, you can join our students in raising money for this important cause by stopping by your local BBMA to enjoy a cup of delicious lemonade! You can also participate by making a donation through our Venmo (@BBMA2024). Don’t forget to include the center name you want to support! BBMA’s young learners will become our next leaders, and it is important they know they already have the ability to make a difference in their local and global communities today. We do this through service learning projects with organizations like Alex’s Lemonade Stand that make important causes easy to understand and act on within our schools. More than 17,000 children will be diagnosed with cancer in the United States this year – yet childhood cancer research is still underfunded. Our children are proud and eager to support this cause by raising awareness and funds to help the young boys and girls who are very sick receive the care they need. This summer, our children will plan, promote, and run lemonade stands – raising money to support childhood cancer research. All funds raised will support ALSF in their mission to support impactful research, raise awareness, and support the families of those fighting childhood cancer. At BBMA, we want our students to know that they have the ability to make meaningful contributions to the lives of others and solve real-world problems. This is our “why” behind service learning, which we call Heart Projects. These projects happen throughout the year and teach a variety of lessons – mindfulness, teamwork, and the power of community. Our Heart Projects help our children understand what it means to be a good citizen of the world by connecting them with people across the globe and in their very own communities while teaching compassion, care, and responsibility. These projects also teach a number of essential skills, which is why campers have a hand in every aspect of our Alex’s Lemonade Stand efforts. Our young learners will organize, spread the word about, and operate these stands, but they need YOU to make the stand a success! Alex’s Lemonade Stand events have officially begun and will be happening throughout the summer. We hope you will find a way to help our young learners help other boys and girls fight cancer and feel better by stopping by our student-created lemonade stands to support this wonderful cause. As local events are scheduled, they will be posted on our BBMA Facebook page. Be sure to enjoy a refreshing cup of lemonade while joining our children in their efforts to change the lives of those fighting childhood cancer! #LemonadeDays #OneCupAtATime #ChildhoodCancer #CancerResearch #PediatricCancer #BigBlueMarbleAcademy #EarlyChildhoodEducation #CommunitySupport #ServiceLearning #BBMAheart
