Our Mission
The Lemonade Project, Inc. is a vital 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Raleigh, North Carolina that acts as a diversionary program for juvenile and low-level offenders. By assisting with education, training, and development, our mission is to reduce recidivism, depopulate the jails, and provide domestic and life skills to ensure that momentary mistakes do not spiral into lifetime consequences. Through our programs, The Lemonade Project envisions a world where former offenders are able to make lemonade out of life’s lemons.
The inspiration for our organization was realized when our founder, George Miller, was incarcerated in North Carolina for almost two years. Upon release, Miller was amazed at all of the resources…
We will provide non-degree job training and certification for occupations such as plumbing, heating & cooling, massage therapy, web design, dental hygiene, and more.
