Just thought I'd let you all know that our event (Tomato Dodgeball - comedy/improv, silent auction...see above) was held last night
The total raised was $5,806. This is down a bit from last year, but our attendance was down, too, so I'm really pleased with the amount!
Everyone involved worked so hard to make it a success!
Also, my school had a jeans for genes day on Friday. It was a huge success! We are a K-8 school of about 425 students. The kids raised $550! So many of them brought in more than the $1 they needed to be out of uniform. I was so emotional when I made the announcement about the total at the end of the day.
The kids are so sweet. I got a lot of cards and pictures that they drew for Emily, and the class that was responsible for doing the school mass this week (Catholic school) included a prayer for her. This is probably my favorite fundraiser, becasue the kids get so involved and they care so much.
Anyway....just wanted to toot the old horn a bit.
How's everyone else doing?
