We are Gideon and Josiah. We are two brothers on a mission to make sure the families of fallen and injured first responders know they are never forgotten.
What started as a small lemonade stand in 2018 became something much greater than we ever imagined. With every refreshment sold, every dollar donated, and every conversation shared, we have worked to honor the heroes who run toward danger when others run away.
We have witnessed the strength, sacrifice, and courage of the men and women who wear the badge, answer emergency calls, and serve their communities every day. We have also learned that when tragedy strikes, those families need more than thoughts and prayers—they need support, hope, and a community that stands beside them.
That is why we do what we do.
We are not just selling lemonade. We are building a legacy of gratitude, service, and compassion. A legacy that reminds first responders and their families that their sacrifices matter, their loved ones will be remembered, and their community stands with them.
We hire food trucks to feed our local 1st responders and do random acts of kindness for them throughout the year to let them know we always appreciate them.
Our goal is bigger than fundraising. We want to inspire people of all ages to step forward, give back, and prove that one act of kindness can create a ripple effect far beyond what anyone can imagine.
Because heroes deserve more than our thanks.
They deserve our action.
