Speaker 1: Korn's Wilder, Kentucky location. And I'm so pleased to welcome
Speaker 1: back Proud Mom. She must be Jess Obert, who is
Speaker 1: the mother of Peyton of Peyton Lemonade Stan Fame. Welcome back, Jess.
Speaker 1: It's great to have you on the program this morning.
Speaker 2: Oh thank you so much for having me.
Speaker 1: And I'll encourage all my listeners to help out. It's
Speaker 1: Peyton's pa y t o ns Peyton's Lemonade Stan dot
Speaker 1: org and you are rock in the world. This all
Speaker 1: started in twenty eighteen when your six year old daughter
Speaker 1: got a gift when she was a children's hospital of
Speaker 1: a teddy bear and it just warmed her heart so
Speaker 1: much that she wanted to give back, so she opened
Speaker 1: a lemonade Stan took in her first year, got seven
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty eight bucks to benefit the charity of
Speaker 1: her children's hospital and it's just blown up since then.
Speaker 1: Tell my listeners how much she took in last year
Speaker 1: with all the help of so many listeners and businesses,
Speaker 1: and like King's Island even was involved last year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so it grew since twenty eighteen. So you
Speaker 2: mentioned she had one stand in our driveway that summer, Well,
Speaker 2: last summer she had ninety stands all throughout Cincinnati and
Speaker 2: northern Kentucky and in three hours we raised over one
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty five thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Again, I had you on last year and there was
Speaker 1: a lemonade stand down in little old Loveland, and I
Speaker 1: lived very close to Loveland, and yeah, I went down
Speaker 1: there and of course made a contribution. And I just
Speaker 1: can't one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars in three hours,
Speaker 1: that's just truly amazing. So over the years collectively, do
Speaker 1: you know how much you've taken in.
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, we're closing in on.
Speaker 3: Probably about eight hundred.
Speaker 1: Thousand, oh my word. Yeah, and you.
Speaker 2: Did a lemonade stands and all the fundraisers that we.
Speaker 1: Do, and so you've expanded. I know, you turned into
Speaker 1: a five oh one C three back in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: This is going to be the eighth annual AM I
Speaker 1: correct July twenty sixth of this year. So this I'm
Speaker 1: giving everybody advanced notice because you can help out. You
Speaker 1: can open up your own lemonade stand taking money for
Speaker 1: this wonderful charity. It's July twenty sixth, Save the date.
Speaker 1: At least get out and buy some lemonade from a
Speaker 1: Peyton's Lemonade stand, because trust me, there's going to be
Speaker 1: one near you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have the map online, so closer to July
Speaker 2: twenty sixth, we'll have a map showing all of the
Speaker 2: locations for the stands, So certainly there will be one
Speaker 2: in your neighborhood, right around the corner at a local
Speaker 2: business close to you. So yeah, we really encourage you
Speaker 2: to come out on July.
Speaker 1: Twenty six And it's not too late for someone to
Speaker 1: set up a stand for the benefit of Payton's Lemonade Stand. Correct.
Speaker 2: No, it's not too late to sign up the host,
Speaker 2: and it's not too late to become a sponsor. You know,
Speaker 2: we had over twenty local businesses last summer who sponsored
Speaker 2: this event, and really it's it's through their invaluable help
Speaker 2: that allows us to put on an event of this magnitude.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really is a lot of work, more work
Speaker 1: than I think anybody really appreciates. And until you've done
Speaker 1: something like this, you're like, oh my god, I didn't
Speaker 1: realize what I was getting into.
Speaker 2: Right right, And we give the host, Brian, everything they
Speaker 2: need to host the stand, so we make it We
Speaker 2: make it very.
Speaker 4: Easy for you.
Speaker 1: So all you do is volunteer by going to Peyton's
Speaker 1: Lemonade Stand dot org and either signing up as a
Speaker 1: sponsor or tell them that you want to do a
Speaker 1: lemonade stand. And while Peyton was recognized, I understand she
Speaker 1: won an award recently.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, so she last fall was recognized as the
Speaker 4: Young Philanthropist of the Year in Cincinnati by the Association
Speaker 4: of Fundraising Professionals here in Cincinnati.
Speaker 2: And then just last week we flew to New York
Speaker 2: City to be on the Cameron Hall Show.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, well congratulations on that. You know, this is
Speaker 1: the kind of thing that could go nationwide because I
Speaker 1: have friends that are involved in cancer research lost their
Speaker 1: daughter to pediatric brain cancer and they started the care
Speaker 1: Starts now which is now global, and you know, just
Speaker 1: started here locally, so you're already all over Ohio, Kentucky,
Speaker 1: and Indiana. So with getting that kind of national exposure,
Speaker 1: this thing could be epic. And going back to your
Speaker 1: establishment as a five o' one C three It started
Speaker 1: out with this proceeds going to the Children's Hospital Medical Center.
Speaker 1: Have you expanded the recipients the charities that that that
Speaker 1: go ahead and tell my listeners who else might might
Speaker 1: get some of the funding?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, So when we became a five on on
Speaker 2: C three, we expanded our mission to include more kids.
Speaker 2: So in addition to helping kids in the hospital, where
Speaker 2: helping kids facing medical, personal and economic hardships. So what
Speaker 2: that means is, you know, we're we're helping kids who
Speaker 2: are experiencing homelessness, We're helping kids in the foster care system,
Speaker 2: We're helping kids and underfund at schools. And it's all
Speaker 2: here locally.
Speaker 3: So there's thousands of kids.
Speaker 2: Who benefit from the funds that we raise every year.
Speaker 1: Do you have a goal for this year's funds? If
Speaker 1: you've got one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars in
Speaker 1: three hours last year, what are you looking for this year?
Speaker 2: You know, I tend not to set gold because I
Speaker 2: would hate to disappoint the kids in the Stans if
Speaker 2: we don't reach the goal.
Speaker 4: But I always just say, we always try to beat
Speaker 4: the total from the previous year, and we've never.
Speaker 3: Not done that.
Speaker 1: I was going to say proven track record. Every single
Speaker 1: year it grows substantially. So you got one hundred grand
Speaker 1: and twenty twenty three, one hundred and twenty five grand
Speaker 1: last year, so let's just say I'm pretty sure you're
Speaker 1: going to get one hundred and fifty this year. That's
Speaker 1: my goal for you. And don't hold it against me
Speaker 1: if you don't get it. But my listeners will help out.
Speaker 1: And I know there's a business out there that's going
Speaker 1: to go, hey, you know what, why not? It's so
Speaker 1: easy to either help with the organization or set up
Speaker 1: a stand. You'll get customers in your in your business
Speaker 1: just to buy some lemonade. They might buy something off
Speaker 1: your shelves, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: I can't tell you how many, but we have so
Speaker 3: many boutiques in at the host and they they love
Speaker 3: that day one because they're giving back, but to their
Speaker 3: stores packed, I know, with people who come in and
Speaker 3: want to wanna donate. And another thing for sponsors, for
Speaker 3: businesses to sponsor, it's great publicity because we are in
Speaker 3: every single part of Cincinnati, so it's a great way
Speaker 3: to get your name out there.
Speaker 1: Well how about that? See you a generated interest right there, Jess.
Speaker 1: Jess Obert got to be so proud of what Peyton
Speaker 1: was able to accomplish along with your help and the
Speaker 1: help of so many others volunteers. You know, be a sponsor,
Speaker 1: set up a stand, anyway you do it, just get
