The Author

Paul Reichert is a life-long cartoonist and illustrator, but after flipping a coin between law school versus art school, Paul became a lawyer and spends his days as a litigator at a law firm in Washington, D.C.

Yet he remains a cartoonist-by-night and at heart, and he has published several editorial cartoons. The Lemonade Ripple is his first children’s book. Paul lives in Potomac, Maryland with his wife and two daughters, and they spend their summers on the St. Lawrence River. For more information, please visit www.paulreichert.net.

The Charity

One hundred percent of the proceeds from the sale of this book go to the Foundation for Community Betterment.

The Foundation for Community Betterment is a national non-profit organization founded in 2000 by a group of friends in their 30s seeking to “better” their communities by making an immediate, positive impact on the lives of needy individuals, families, or entire organizations who currently lack the means to succeed.

In the last ten years, the Foundation for Community Betterment has distributed proceeds to over 150 individuals and organizations, both in the United States and abroad, with the goal that simple actions can create a ripple effect of goodness – when its recipients continue to positively impact those around them.  For more information, please visit www.communitybetterment.org.
