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

In summary, Kristi was approached by a teacher at one of our local schools and she wanted to have a fundraiser to benefit the ACS. She got the okay from the principal and also got the okay to send home flyers to the parents!!! She made the Peanutty Brownie Pizza, Chocolate Chip Sensation and Parmesan Rosemary Pinwheels and brought them to the school. When 7 pm rolled around, 5 people including the chairperson and her sister in law showed up. She continued with the show (very fun group and one of newest recruits came to watch!) and still talked about things. She got one booking and with 3 orders, she left with $194. Great for 3 orders! She's had 3 more orders come

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!!!:D 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)!!!:eek:

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!!!
 
Good luck Kristi and keep us posted!!!!!
