A few Middle Country students are turning lemons into lemonade
The three Muccio siblings — Isabella, an 11th grader; Michael, a 7th grader; Giavanna, a 5th grader; and Madelyn, a 2nd grader — have exceeded their fundraising goals through a dedicated lemonade stand effort.
These enterprising young individuals worked diligently during their summer vacations to support children in need within the Middle Country Central School District community. Operating their lemonade stand for 18 hours over the course of three days, they amassed a total of $1,317. All proceeds will be used to purchase essential school supplies and backpacks for students in need.
On the evening of Aug. 4, the Muccio siblings visited Walmart and Target to purchase supplies and backpacks, and they will continue their shopping in the coming days.
The Muccio family’s initiative received tremendous support from the community, including friends, neighbors, teachers and staff. The Muccio family believes that the collective generosity and enthusiasm played a pivotal role in the success of this fundraiser.
“We are incredibly proud of Isabella, Michael, Giavanna, and Madelyn for their hard work and dedication,” said Roberta Gerold, superintendent of schools. “Their selflessness and commitment to helping others is truly inspiring. We are deeply grateful to everyone who supported their cause and helped make this fundraiser successful.”
