Lemons to Lemonade

Lemons to Lemonade A teen created workbook and summer camp to help kids like us navigate their grief journey �

03/11/2026

This is grief camp… but it’s not “griefy.” 🍋

At Lemons to Lemonade Camp, kids who have lost a parent, sibling, or loved one spend the week doing what camp should feel like — laughing, playing outside, making crafts, meeting therapy animals, and building friendships with other kids who understand them.

The most powerful part is watching them go from feeling alone to realizing they’re not.💛

📅 June 15–18
⏰ 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM
📍 Hidden Hills Elementary School, Laguna Niguel

If you know a child who has experienced loss, this camp is for them.🍋

Please help us make our community stronger by sharing this video with a family who might benefit from this week. 🍋

Our deepest gratitude to the George Hoag Family Foundation for believing in the mission of Lemons to Lemonade. 🍋

When I moved to Orange County, I was surprised to learn that grieving children here had very few places to turn for support. Hoag choosing to help change that means more than we can express.💛

When we support the children in our community, we strengthen the health of our entire community. Their healing affects all of us.

It is truly such a joy to work with these kids — watching them go from feeling alone to realizing they are surrounded by friends who understand them and care.

If you would like to help us make lemonade, we would love to hear from you. There are many ways to get involved — volunteering at camp, helping with our meet-ups, or connecting us with foundations that want to make a meaningful impact.
THANK YOU- we are going to work hard to make you proud! 🍋

We’ve been thinking about this day a lot. 💕
We were honored to partner with and support over 50 incredible families as they navigate childhood cancer with so much strength and courage.

Grief comes in many forms — and community matters in all of them.

Moments like this remind us why we’re committed to strengthening our community in 2026 and showing up wherever support is needed.

If you believe in building spaces where families feel supported and connected, we’d love to have you with us. Let’s keep squeezing lemonade together. 🍋

💛Grief doesn’t just go away for kids.
You grow up with it — and how you’re supported really matters. 🍋
I was surrounded by people who helped me feel understood and not alone, and that changed how I learned to carry my grief.
Not every child has that kind of support.
That’s why helping grieving kids is so important — and why communities play such a big role.
If we can show up for kids early, we can change the way they grow through loss. 💛

I was honored to be a guest on The Donna Drake Show. 🌟
In this interview, I share the full story behind Lemons to Lemonade — how it began, why supporting grieving children matters so deeply, and how community can change a child’s path after loss.💛
What made this conversation especially meaningful was an unexpected bonding moment that reminded us how deeply grief connects all of us.
The full interview is now live on our website (link in bio). I’ll also be sharing a few meaningful moments from this conversation here.
Thank you, Donna Drake, for having me as your guest — it was truly magical. 🤍
