When life gave these young entrepreneurs lemons, they made more than lemonade.
The money raised during the 13th annual Lemonade Stand Day will be used to buy NICView cameras for neonatal intensive care units across northern Alberta.
The cameras are accessible 24/7 for parents and families to view their newborns in the NICU from anywhere in the world, on any device with Internet access.

Hannah Thoreson has been selling lemonade from her stand since she was three. Now 13, she understands the impact each cup can have.
Thoreson aspires to become a doctor to continue helping people well after someone else takes over the stand.
Hers was one of the 725 stands across Edmonton raising money in support of the Stollery Children’s Hospital. Last year, the fundraiser brought in more than $533,000.
