Miles & Tyler - Greatest Giveback Award Recipients 2017

Miles & Tyler, 2017 Lemonade Day participants from Faith Lutheran School in Fond du Lac, donated a total of $330.40 to the Fond du Lac Area Women’s Fund. This non-profit organization promotes positive community change through education and awareness of issues impacting women and girls. The duo selected the charity because, in Miles’ own words, “Tyler and I know that the Women’s Fund is a wonderful organization that does a lot to help women and girls and we especially want to support the Fond du Lac Says No More campaign.” Miles & Tyler decided early on in their school’s Lemonade Day program to donate 60% of their total profits to the Fond du Lac Area Women’s Fund, which represented $58.15 of the total donation. The boys raised an additional $272.25 for the Women’s Fund through their tip jar, which they directed 100% to the Women’s Fund. Many generous friends, family members, and community members donated to the cause, which the boys promoted at their stand through signs, banners, social media and t-shirts. The boys also briefly addressed the Fond du Lac Area Women’s Fund Board of Directors at their April Board meeting to invite them to their stand to raise funds for the organization and following Lemonade Day they proudly presented the Board with their check.

Miles and Tyler were the recipients of the Greatest Giveback Award which celebrates entrepreneurs who donate the largest sum of money to a non-profit or charitable organization of their choice.

Lemonade Day Fond du Lac Area could not be more proud of these two young men and their drive to make an intentional and positive impact on the local community!
