Payton's Lemonade Stand, 2035 W Galbraith Rd, Cincinnati, OH (2026)

06/14/2026

Who says lemonade stands are just for kids? 🍋

We’re just SIX weeks away and our friends at Northgate Park Senior Living are getting ready for the 9th Annual Payton’s Lemonade Stand by creating adorable lemon-themed crafts to sell alongside their lemonade. We can’t help but wonder if this brings back memories of childhood summers spent running their own stands.

It’s a sweet reminder that you’re never too young (or too old!) to make a difference.

With more than 100 stands across our community, July 25th is all about kids serving kids... with a little help from some pretty incredible grown-ups. 💛🍋

One of our favorite things about Payton’s Lemonade Stand is the opportunity to bring people together to make a difference.

Today, we teamed up with Lipps Electric to provide lunch for more than 65 children experiencing homelessness during their summer camp program with UpSpring. With temperatures soaring and a full day of activities ahead of them, a good meal was exactly the kind of refuel these kids needed.

Thanks to the generosity of our friends at Busken Bakery and Jersey Mike's Subs, we were able to make our dollars stretch even further and provide a lunch that was not only filling, but extra special and extra delicious.

What made today even more meaningful was the chance for Lipps Electric to see firsthand the impact of their support. So often, sponsors give without getting the chance to meet the kids they’re helping. Opportunities like this allow them to connect with the children whose lives are being touched through their generosity and see the mission of Payton’s Lemonade Stand in action.

When businesses, nonprofits, and community partners come together, incredible things happen.

Thank you, Lipps Electric, Busken Bakery, and Jersey Mike’s, for helping us sweeten the lives of local kids today. 🍋💛

One of the things that makes Payton's Lemonade Stand so special is the incredible community that rallies around our mission year after year. Today, we're excited to welcome a new group of hosts who have chosen to open their hearts, share their time, and help bring hope to children facing hardships. We are so grateful for their support and can't wait for you to meet them! 🍋

Meet Winnie! This bright and energetic 5-year-old is proud to host her first stand in the College Hill neighborhood. As a child with epilepsy, Winnie’s goal is to help other epileptic kids at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital.

Stella is also new to the host crew - but her mom isn't! After seeing how fulfilling hosting a lemon giving tree was, Tracy knew she wanted to get Stella signed up to be a summer lemonade stand host. She'll be in the parking lot of Wassler Meats in the heart of Cheviot!

Megan works tirelessly at grant writing for Payton's Lemonade Stand and she felt so inspired by the work we do that she was quick to sign up not only her girls, but also recruited neighborhood friends - even hosting a happy hour to tell them all about PLS! We can't wait to see their turnout!

Erin is an Edward Jones Financial Advisor who was looking to get involved with Payton's Lemonade Stand so she decided to host a stand! Her community hosts a back to school drive at their neighborhood pool so she's going to include a lemonade stand this year! So sweet!

June and Olivia are no strangers to Payton's Lemonade Stand! Their sweet mom, Michelle, serves on our board. They already have a stand in their neighborhood so they reached out to their cousins, Beau and Lindley, to see if they could come to their neighborhood - what a great idea! We love perseverance!

Tabitha's Closet Inc. is an organization doing amazing work in the Maineville area and it's an organization we are proud to support. Their board decided to join the fun and host a stand this July and we're thrilled to have them on the team!

The Beechtop crew - Ruth, Lila, Kensi, Evie, Luci and Juliette are joining in the fun this year too! These Victory students are so excited to bring a lemonade stand to their neighborhood and we're hoping it's the start of the summer tradition of giving back. We know they're going to knock it out of the park!

Taylor and Piper have always been out of town for our big day, so they were quick to sign up when they realized they'd be in town this year! It's so fun to see families who have followed along for years decide to join in the fun!

Arches Preschool of Oak Hills hosts a lemon giving tree every year during our holiday campaign and decided to take a shot at hosting a lemonade stand this July! Given the success of their trees, we know they'll find success again in July.

We met Madison, founder of Driven and Devoted, at the InspiHER retreat back in April. She had the perfect event in July that she wanted to bring a lemonade stand to and we're so excited to introduce the people of Pickerington, OH to Payton's Lemonade Stand!

Grace's mom had discovered Payon's Lemonade Stand via a friend and thought it would be the perfect for Grace. She wasted no time signing Grace up to be a host and we can't wait to see her love of philanthropy grow through the hosting of her own lemonade stand.

The Casual Pint - Hamilton is going all out!! Not only are they hosting a one of a kind stand on the big day (i.e. pick your flavor of lemonade bar!), but they are doing a giveback all month long on their lemonade cocktails!! We'll be sure to share more as you won't want to miss it!

Jack and Mackenzie aren't new to hosting, but they had to take last year off and so we're so happy to welcome them back! These two have such a love for giving back and we love that they choose to give back with us.

Not pictured are the Crows, Vondenbrinks and Acuses who will be teaming up to host in Blue Ash. ☺️

Please join us in giving these incredible hosts a warm welcome to the Payton's Lemonade Stand family. We are so grateful for their willingness to be part of something bigger than themselves, and we can't wait to see the impact their stands will make.

Be sure to mark your calendars for the BIG day - July 25th!! 💛

This morning, a group of our summer hosts gathered for a fun volunteer experience at Tikkun Farm! We learned about the many ways this incredible farm serves and supports those in need throughout our community like providing a free food market that includes all of the food they grow.

Our hosts stepped outside their comfort zones by tasting fresh berries straight from the bushes (and even some sour grapes!), holding animals that weren't always easy to catch, and feeding alpacas that have a reputation for spitting when they're not happy—ha! We then teamed up to tackle a variety of farm chores, working together to help support the farm's mission.

One of our favorite things is giving our hosts opportunities to see firsthand the impact their lemonade stands have on others in the community. Today's experience was a wonderful reminder of the difference they're making, and every single one of them left with a smile on their face! 🍋💛

Meet David. 💛 Over spring break, David's world changed in an instant when he unexpectedly lost his dad. As an only child, he and his mom have been navigating an incredibly difficult season of grief and adjustment.

His dad was so much more than a parent. He was his best friend. Together, they bonded over engineering, robotics, coding, and technology, spending countless hours learning and creating side by side.

After his dad's passing, Jackson often talked about wanting to attend a coding and robotics camp. It was something he knew his dad would have loved for him, but with everything his family was facing, the cost was simply out of reach.

Wanting to help, his amazing teacher, who also happens to be a cousin of Payton's, shared Jackson's story on Facebook. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community and our lemonade donors, we are thrilled to send Jackson to not one, but TWO amazing camps this summer. 🥰

When he was told the news, his excitement was impossible to miss. Seeing that smile reminded us exactly why we do what we do.

To many people, sending a child to camp may seem like a small gesture. But for Jackson, it means the opportunity to pursue something he loves, feel connected to the passions he shared with his dad, and create new memories while carrying those treasured old ones with him.

We hope these camps bring him moments that make him feel close to his dad all summer long. 🍋

We are incredibly grateful to announce that Wieland Builders LLC is continuing to support Payton’s Lemonade Stand in such a meaningful way! 💛🍋

For every home they complete, Wieland Builders will be making a donation to our nonprofit on behalf of the new homeowner. What an amazing way to celebrate a new beginning while also giving back to children and families facing hardships. 🏡✨

We are so thankful for businesses that intentionally use their success to make a difference in the community, and we’re honored to partner with Wieland Builders once again! 😊

Summer officially starts now! ☀️🏊‍♀️🍋

Thanks to your incredible generosity back in March, we were able to deliver close to 100 swim bundles to Cincinnati Recreation Commission filled with brand new swimsuits, towels, goggles, plus sunscreen and lotion that was so generously donated by Bioré!

But, the sweetness didn’t stop there! Thanks to Shop Charbon, we were also able to provide an abundance of snacks for all 1,500 campers to enjoy this summer — AND present CRC with a $2,000 check! 🙌

That donation will fund private swim lessons for 50 (!!) kids, giving them confidence in the water and helping them stay safe at the pool all summer long.

Because of this amazing community, so many kids are heading into summer with smiles on their faces and ready to make memories that will last a lifetime! 💛

What a beautiful day we had for our golf outing! The sun was shining, the wind was blowing, and the lemonade was flowing! ☀️🍋

These incredible golfers showed up in a big way and helped us raise over $80,000… absolutely amazing! 😱 From our sponsors and golfers to everyone who bid on auction items, bought bourbon raffle tickets, or joined us for the reception, thank you for making this day so special.

And to our volunteers, both behind the scenes and on the course, thank you for pouring your hearts into this event. We simply could not have done it without you.

We truly could not have dreamed up a better day, and we’re smiling knowing just how many kids will benefit from this picture perfect outing. 💛

Our SOLD OUT golf outing is TOMORROW and we had to take a moment to shout out two incredible businesses helping us take this event to the next level with experiences our golfers are going to LOVE! 💛

Shannon from CincySips is bringing the fun with FOUR mobile bars serving up cocktails that are as festive as they are delicious. Think fresh made drinks topped off with flowers, umbrellas, balloons, and all the extra touches that make everything more fun! Thanks to some generous sponsors, golfers will get to enjoy The Hunna Lemon Press, The Perfect Smile Spritz (Haverkos), The Lipps Lemonade Spark, and the Pink Lemonade Cloud (The Balloon Parlor). Safe to say… we’re already thirsty! 🍋

We’re also excited to welcome Greenies Mobile Golf to the course with their incredible golf simulator trailer. Golfers can sneak in some extra swings between holes while experiencing a massive 4K projection display, state of the art launch monitor technology, and some of the best simulator software in the game. It’s such a fun addition to the outing and we’re so grateful for their support! ⛳️

Tomorrow is going to be one for the books - we just know it! ☺️
