let the fun(d)raising begin.

K, so i lost motivation. Mostly from test failing and march madness induced distraction.

But I recently found out that there's going to be a bunch more orphans going into the orphanage so they need $2,000 dollars to make a new dorm. Sounds like a lot, but $2,000 for a dorm holding 20 kids? Nothing really. So here's some events that I hope will be able to make at least that much.

1st: Bowl-A-Thon
Basically similar to the walk-a-thon from the office, we're going to do a bowl-a-thon. here's how it's going to work:

Step 1: Get people to sponsor you. (Either a flat rate like $5, $10 or (insert your generous dollar amount here.) or a per pin basis. Ex: if you're sponsored 5 cents per pin and you bowl a 100, the amount is $5.) 5 sponsor minimum and you bowl for free. No dollar minimum, but I kind of have like a $20 goal per person. (sponsors can be anyone like a friend, roommate, relative, co-worker, etc.)

Step 2: Bowl! (date TBA)

Step 3: Collect money from your sponsors

Step 4: Collect blessings for helping out those in need.

2nd: Garage Sale

I have a ton of crap to get rid of, and I figure other people do to, what with graduation and moving and what not. So I figure we could have a garage sale. It'll probably be the 26th, like the day after the last finals. If people aren't going to be here, you can just drop your stuff off to me and I'll hawk it for you. Any ideas on a site for this?

Anywho, I hope everyone will help out. I would appreciate it very much, but more importantly these kids need it!

Let everyone know about this!

Thanks. Email me if you have any questions. trentmano@gmail.com
