"Make a Stand could not just raise money to end child slavery, but create a role model for all business."
The New York Times
Make
a Stand is a shining example of what one person can do.
After seeing a
photo of two enslaved boys, 8 year-old Vivienne Harr "made a
stand" at her lemonade stand for 365 days straight.
Her moment
became a movement. People around the world stood with Vivienne and
helped her raise over $100,000 for Not For Sale. Remarkably, Vivienne
surpassed her goal…after 173 straight days of selling lemonade.
It captured hearts around the world—and redefined what each of us
can do. The moment became a movement--and a better way of doing
business.
When
you purchase Make a Stand Lemon-aid, you are voting for fair-trade
business practices—and
freedom for all. You are making a stand and having a positive impact
on our world.

If every corporation in America gave 5% of total revenues (not just profits), that would be roughly $1 trillion every year.
