Payton's Lemonade Stand Returns: Growing a Movement That Changes Lives
Payton Obert and Jess Obert are back on the WB Download, and what a difference a year has made.
Since their first appearance on the podcast, Payton's Lemonade Stand has continued to inspire communities across Greater Cincinnati while making an incredible impact. What began as one little girl's lemonade stand at just six years old has grown into a movement with more than 100 lemonade stand hosts, over $5 million raised for children facing medical, personal, and economic hardships, and more than 18,000 books donated to the Queen City Book Bank.
Jeff Wieland sits down with Payton and Jess to discuss how the organization has grown, the leadership lessons learned along the way, and what's next—including a new scholarship program for young hosts, expanding volunteer opportunities, and exciting community partnerships.
The conversation also covers:
- The inspiring story behind Payton's Lemonade Stand and how one lemonade stand became a regional movement.
- Payton's journey into high school while balancing cross country, volunteering, babysitting, and philanthropy.
- The impact of collecting thousands of books to promote childhood literacy through Queen City Book Bank.
- A new collaboration with Chowdown Cincinnati featuring Payton's Lemonade-inspired cocktails that give back to the mission.
- The Cincinnati Open and Fifth Third Bank's "Cincy Serves" community recognizes Payton Obert as a nominee.
- How Wieland Builders proudly supports Payton's Lemonade through fundraising events, donations, and its annual lemonade stand.
Last year's Annual Payton's Lemonade Stand raised an incredible $150,000 in just three hours, and Jeff shares why supporting Payton's mission has become such an important part of Wieland Builders' culture and community involvement.
This episode is filled with inspiring stories, laughter, community partnerships, and a reminder that one simple idea can create extraordinary change. Whether you're looking to host a lemonade stand, support a meaningful cause, or simply hear an uplifting story about leadership and giving back, you won't want to miss this conversation.
Listen now and discover how Payton's Lemonade Stand continues to sweeten lives, empower the next generation of young philanthropists, and make a lasting impact throughout our community.
