The Pink Lemonade Stand challenge is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit, managing and annual campaign to benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF), learn more at www.PinkLemonadeChallenge.org 

We have worked with more than 100 college interns since 2019!  Many have gone on to law school, medical school, other graduate schools and outstanding careers.  With support from our college intern team we have set a Guinness World Record, partnered with iconic global retailers and NFL Teams, raised hundreds of thousands for breast cancer research, raised awareness about breast cancer and vital medical research aimed at ending breast cancer and been featured on national and local news coast to coast. 

See us set the Guinness World Record for the most funds every raised at a lemonade stand in 24 hours: https://www.steelers.com/video/watch-women-of-steel-raise-money-for-breast-cancer-research-through-pink-lemonad
