Calendar Sale Update

The volunteers interested in sponsoring their own wish by selling holiday calendars met at Susan Grinder's home last night and enjoyed a fun -filled evening of cheese, wine and candlelight. ( thanks to MLGW for lack of power!!). Below is a summary from Robyn who is in charge of inventory control. All I can say is............. "Way to Go Volunteers"


The first Tally is in! Thanks to just a few (19) volunteers 225 calendars are committed to! Please feel free to share experiences as we take the calendars into our communities; what really worked or didn't work for you. We will begin an e-mail list of contributors who would like to hear the 'rest of the story' …in the future we will forward a photo of our volunteer-sponsored wish child to them (and hope to involve them further in Make-A-Wish) !
Thank you to Susan for a fun kick-off party that got us rolling! Please let me know if you need additional calendars or have any questions!

Volunteer need

Today is Monday Oct 16th. I really need a couple of volunteers to help sort our Holiday Cards on Wednesday and Thursday for about 3 hours on each day. This will mean a savings of $359 for us. Please let me know if you can help.

Volunteer Kudos

Kudos to Susan Grinder today. She volunteered to help deliver cookies to our donors with Brooke and after 4 hours of driving all over town Brooke learned it was Susan's birthday!
Imagine giving up your own special day to spend it doing something for someone else.
Thank you Susan and Happy Birthday!!

The Birth of a Blog

I would never have believed I would be technical as to own my own blog! How awesome to be able to contact all of the volunteers in just an instant!! Alright, I confess, I didn't set this up.. our Media Coordinator, Amanda, did it for me but I think I'm going to like this. I hope to get a lot of comments and entries so please feel free to use it to let the rest of the volunteers know about your enhancements, in-kind finds and ask questions.
I look forward to hearing from all of you soon.
