Our class project raised over $800 to donate to OHOH!

Here's the link to the blog that the kids used to start and build this project. Try to read it from the very bottom (October 15^th) to see the investigation, communication, and writing skills used, and to see the development of the project through the kids' eyes.

 

They ended up raising $823.82. 

 

Our bookkeepers will need your W-9 to cut a check for Open Hands Overflowing Hearts.

Okay. 
1. Water for Africa may sell during AO, but I don't think there will be many who make and bring more bracelets. 
2. You guys only got permission to do the lemon challenge, not ornaments. 
3. Everybody calm down. You are doing a great thing. Just take it easy. Everything will work out. 
4. Water for Africa raised $616.27

I'm sorry. I couldn't think straight during all the chaos, and I now realize that we did not include the ornaments in our proposal that Dr. Jarnagin signed. We can't go beyond what our proposal stated, but I think you could charge $1 donation to take the lemon challenge, and then ask for an additional donation.

The ornaments, if you guys are set on doing them, could be the bonus for them, an appreciation gift for their contribution. How does that work for you guys? That's the best I can come up with in my state of exhaustion. 

I just got home. 

Jen Spell

Is it possible if we email Dr. Jarnigan before Monday?

Ms. Caston-Smith

We are already pushing the envelope, so to speak, and they've given me a lot of leeway. I do not want to ask for further changes. The fundraisers must be approved a week in advance, you guys.

Jen Spell

Oh okay.

Ms. Caston-Smith

So feel free to make the ornaments. Seriously. $1=lemon challenge. $2 or more = lemon challenge and a thank you ornament if you guys are willing to go that way, but we cannot sell the ornaments. What a great idea, though!

1st world problems, kids. All is well. Go home and give thanks. Signing off.
