Fundraisers and expenses

The month of December 2015 went well for us.  We were able to raise $1230.14 from three different fundraisers:  Puzzle Piece Fundraiser, Avon Fundraiser, and Jamberry Fundraiser.  The T-shirt Sales has ended and I expect to get another $48.00 from those sales. I was also able to sell my personal elliptical for $200 which went for our adoption expenses.

I still have some Bracelets from Haiti to sell.  I started with 150 and have sold 87.  I still have 63 bracelets to sell in the next couple of weeks.

There are still plenty of puzzle pieces to be sponsored.  They are $20.00 for edge pieces and $10.00 for all other pieces.

I also have two new fundraisers starting.  Over the next 2-3 weeks I will have a Tupperware Fundraiser and an Origami Owl Fundraiser.  These are both great products and both will contribute 40% of all sales to our adoption expenses.

We have been able to cover the Home Study fees of $1,250 (between personal funds and a fundraising).  We are still trying to raise the agency fee of $8,000 in order to start getting matched with a baby/birthmother.  Please consider participating in one of our fundraisers or making a donation.

Looking forward to another great month!
