Successful RFL Fundraiser at Local School: See How We Raised Over $350 for ACS!

[PampMomof3]

I was approached by a teacher at one of our local schools and she wanted to have a fundraiser to benefit the ACS. Well, she got the okay from the principal and also got the okay to send home flyers to the parents!!! I was STOKED!!! The chairperson thought it would be HUGE so I went to Publix and got the Asst Store Mgr to donate the ingredients to the ACS. Well, I went home and made the Peanutty Brownie Pizza, Chocolate Chip Sensation and Parmesan Rosemary Pinwheels. I bring these to the school and set up an hour early. Well, when 7 pm rolled around, 5 people including the chairperson and my sister in law (who is also a teacher there)!!!

I continued with the show (very fun group and one of newest recruits came to watch!) and still talked about things. I got one booking and with 3 orders, I left with $194. Great for 3 orders! I've had 3 more orders come in so far so we're up to $350.90!! The chairperson is collecting all the orders and giving them to me tomorrow (the other orders are from people I know an online orders). I can't wait to see how it turns out!! My sil called friday and said the assistant principal is looking to buy ALL the forged cutlery!! One can only hope!!!! I really want this to go well! I want to raise money for the ACS and get the incentive trip points! I don't even care about the money!!!!

Thanks for reading this!!!
