Fund Raising Success?

So we had our fund raising concert and ran the race which we planned to use to sell the shirts that we weren't able to at the concert. Lets' just say that it was a great success in learning how to do things right the next time. We have plans in the works to sell the remaining t-shirts and we are thinking about getting something going in October...we will hopefully be a well oiled machine by then. We did however raise some money and will be sending it to you very soon.

It's good to know that He has got it all under control even when we don't see it.

Fund Raising Idea

Here is an invitation we sent out of an idea to raise money to send supplies to Haiti:

Sunday, March 14, 2010
1:00pm - 6:00pm
Northwood Community Park ("Castle Park")
4531 Bryan Avenue
Irvine, CA

Joyful, Josiah, Jamie, and Dave all are having birthdays!!!

Please no gifts!! But rather a $20 donation for Help The Children (check out www.helpthechildren.org) Your $20 includes a wristband which will get you a t-shirt, food, birthday cake, and live music. We will have baked goods and crafts for sale where all proceeds and donations go toward Help The Children.

Help The Children has a warehouse, packed with pallets of medical supplies, food, drinks, and tents, waiting to be shipped to Haiti. Finances are keeping the pallets in the warehouse because of shipping prices. $4,000 will ship $350,000 worth of supplies. Our goal is to raise enough money to ship as many pallets as possible.

We are a team of 12 runners that have committed to running an 180- mile relay race from Santa Barbara to Dana Point on April 23-24, 2010. (Check out www.ragnarrelay.com for more details). We decided to not only run this race for fun, but for a cause. Our dream is to raise money for Haiti, and this party/benefit concert is one of the ways we plan on doing just that! For more information on our team, check out our blog at: http://www.twelvedisciplerunners.blogspot.com/

We can’t do this alone and the people in these disaster areas need us. Please come out to celebrate and get together with us. Feel free to pass on this invite to anyone and everyone you know that would like to come and be a part of the fun with us. There is a huge park, soccer fields and various grass areas to play around in.

If you know anyone who would like to sell crafts/goods at the benefit concert that day, please
email cortney3@gmail.com

Thanks and we’d love to have you!
