55 gallons of lemonade later...

No Longer was thrilled to partner up with the Hill family this afternoon with a huge lemonade stand in downtown Trussville.  And we didn't serve just any ole lemonade... we served fresh Toomer's Lemonade straight from Auburn, and it was deliciously refreshing on such a hot day.  The best part of the event was the many opportunities we were given to tell friends (and strangers) about what No Longer wants to do for orphans and how they can be involved in the excitement.  We were also happy to share the Hill family's story with others to raise awareness for the orphans around the world who are waiting for their forever families.  Ashley and Mike Hill are in the process of adopting a baby girl from Ethiopia, and they have involved their two sons, Hudson and Haisten, in their fundraising efforts and made the whole process a true family affair.  Many, many thanks to all who came out and bought lemonade today.  It was truly a success!  We sold 55 gallons of lemonade and raised $2,200!  Thank you, Trussville!







Thank you to the following groups for making the whole thing happen: Toomer's Drug, Lisa at Kuttin' Up, Randy at Legend's Smokehouse, and Suzie at The Chocolate Biscuit!
