In 2016, a 10-year-old from from Colorado appeared on Shark Tank with a business idea about “lemonade stands” and he was offered a deal (https://is.gd/ gIr0Nm) by Billionaire investor Chris Sacca, according to the Denver Post.

Yet, pre-dating the boy in 2013, a 2-year-old in Salem Mass. had already started her entrepreneurial business similarly, but with a commitment to give back to humanity too, not merely just for-profit. Her father, Sully’s Brand owner Chris Wrenn, 43, explained that his daughter’s first lemonade stand was “recycled out of discarded pallets’ from his office, which he “built when she was two years old.”

“I got my lemonade stand when I was 2 and started selling lemonade for the YMCA at 3 and at 6 I started Georgia Made This [her website]”, said Georgia Wrenn, who will be 8 this summer, to The Rainbow Times.

Art runs in the family Georgia, according to Wrenn, has been “drawing since she could hold a crayon.” But, creative talent isn’t a foreign concept to him or his father. Wrenn uses that talent when he showcases his art through Sully’s, the company he founded. That’s also when his fine arts degree comes in handy.
