“Libiamo” Among the Lemons

I love when I hear about nonprofits doing innovative marketing like this: Granted, they didn’t think of the idea first (they were inspired by this stunt), but the execution was fabulous.  Just look at all those SMILES in the audience! You can’t buy that kind of goodwill, you have to create it.
