Day 336: 'Tis the Season for Giving


Our YMCA Extreme Leaders group decided to "adopt a family". We are basically raising money for a mother and her 4 children so that they can have a descent Christmas! So this meant that we had to think of ways to fundraise and eventually decided to have an indoor yard sale at my school! I've been asking a lot of people to donate clothes and old stuff they don't need so we could sell those to raise some money. To get more people to donate, Jomar, Jill and I decided to do a door-to-door thing. Jomar printed over 65 cards with info in it and then we gave those to the people who opened the door. After feeling comfortable, Jill and I parted ways from Jomar and did our best to get people to help. We did awesome actually! We got a lot of people who wanted to donate some stuff, hopefully they won't have trouble dropping those stuff off at school.

Anyway, it was soo cold. It took a while, but it was worth it. Hopefully we'll reach our goal before the end of the week!
