I kind of devour John Woods' books. You see, he is the founder of Room To Read. And he has a yearly budget of $39,000,000. That's right 6 zeroes. He forms chapters all over the world of very wealthy people to do his fundraising. So I am trying hard to copy his ideas. And we do have some adults doing chapters. Kent, in TX and Debbie in GA. But the ones that tickle my heart the best are the kids, the young kids. Like Raquel in NY City who personally handed out the formula she raised the money for . [Pictures and story to follow when she returns to the USA ]
Now our new youngest fundraiser is Katie. Katie is the cute little blond in all the photos. The top photo is the most recent and she is shown with your younger bro and sis on the first day of school. She is doing a yard sale/lemonade stand on Sat. Sept. 14th in Stamford, CT. Katie raised donations for our feeding programs when she was just a toddler and took them down to Guatemala and delivered them herself. You see Katie is my granddaughter and the daughter of Erin, who many of you know through the work she does for us.
We love our young fundraisers. If your child is interested in doing a fundraiser, just let us know. We will send them rack cards and business cards to hand out. We also will send some woven bracelets, hand made by our women in Guatemala that are easy sells.
