Ooooh! I LOVE the SAve the date card idea. I think I will print dates of our fundraisers on labels and slap them on the back of a pic of Emily along with a little bit about how she's doing, and enclose them with the Christmas card. It's newsy, and lets people know how she's doing, without being preachy or overbearing. Thanks for the idea!
I always feel bad that my grandma and aunts get fundraising sstuff from CFF along with us, too. However, so does anyone who makes theri great strides donation with a check or credit card. Hopefully, peoole know that they are being "hit up" twice for a good reason. When people have asked, I've just told them that they can donate to either the CFF or to me at Great STrides time, but it boosts our tam total if they donate to me directly. You are right, it all goes the same place...but I'm competitive and like to have a BIG total for GS! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">
