Six-year-olds Nora and Penny held a lemonade stand in their neighborhood to raise money for Pandas International and were able to donate $50 after just one day! Nora became interested in Giant Pandas after reading Magic Tree House: A Perfect Time for Pandas and realizing that the earthquake in 2008 was real, as is the ongoing need for money and resources to support the panda population. Nora and Penny planned their lemonade stand during recess within the first couple weeks of first grade. They made signs, made lemonade, and enthusiastically got attention of passersby. Nora and Penny are excited to donate money to Pandas International because “pandas are endangered and we need to help them… and they’re SO cute!”

Thank you Nora and Penny for your dedication and support!
