Our story
The Tuscaloosa Story
Boys & Girls Clubs of West Alabama, in partnership with Cadence Bank, is excited to participate in Lemonade Day Tuscaloosa 2021!
Our youth need a mindset that equips them to recognize opportunity, take initiative and innovate in the face of challenges — in essence, to dream and achieve. Lemonade Day empowers youth to take ownership of their own lives and become productive members of society – the business leaders, social advocates, volunteers, and forward-thinking citizens of tomorrow.
