11-year-old signs deal with Whole Foods -Zoe Klimaszewski

When appearing on Shark Tank with her business idea, Mikaila Ulmer scored a business deal to get her grandmothers lemonade recipe manufactured. Whole Foods, seeing promise in her BeeSweet Lemonade, signed a deal with her. The reason this is so great is that it highlights bees as a helpful species and also supports local bee farms. With her profits, Ulmer donates a portion to organizations and charities that work to protect and save honeybees.
This is very important as bees are dying, and last year 40% of beekeeper hives were lost. Should bees go extinct, the human race could kiss life goodbye as we would only survive about four years, according to Albert Einstein.
