Gracie, CEO, age 10, presents Holiday GiftMart. She is using her small lemonade stand company, Twins Lemonade, to give back to her community and help spread cheer and joy for the holiday season. She kickstarted the event by getting 10 gifts so far! Gracie wants to raise awareness about autism and neurodiversity. Being a kid with autism can be a challenge, but that doesn’t stop Gracie. She and her twin brother, Trevor, want kids in the community to all be able to enjoy the magic of Christmas.

Help them make this a success. We will need wrapping paper, tape, bows, and gift cards for groceries. We are also looking for gently used toys and new toys, coats, gloves, etc.

Who knows, you might find a special guest making an appearance at the event!

The goal is to raise $2,500 in hopes of helping over 100-200 kids.
