🏅 Honoring Youth Leadership at the Continental Societies Scholarship Breakfast

Celebrating Voices, Vision, and Education

At Lemonade with Ice, we believe in the power of youth-led change. That’s why we were honored to be part of the Continental Societies, Inc. Scholarship Breakfast, where our founder, Ishanvi (Ice) Venkatesh, served as a guest speaker—sharing our mission to empower girls around the world through education, innovation, and purpose-driven leadership.

🎓 This event brought together community leaders, educators, and scholarship recipients for a morning dedicated to celebrating academic excellence, cultural pride, and community service. As a speaker, Ice reflected on her journey starting Lemonade with Ice at age five and how a single voice can ignite global change.

💬 A Message from Our Founder: “Start Small, Think Big, Lead Boldly”

Ice’s keynote speech emphasized a simple but powerful idea: young people don’t need to wait to lead—they can lead now. With stories of impact from rural India to local schools in Houston, she encouraged students to use their voices to make change, wherever they are.

🌍 From grassroots projects to international partnerships, Lemonade with Ice is a testament to what’s possible when compassion meets action.

🤝 A Shared Commitment to Education & Empowerment

The values of Continental Societies, Inc. and Lemonade with Ice align deeply:
