Fundraiser Idea

This past week has been busy with our life group. Our life groups have 3 big summer trips that we plan for every year. Although these trips are fun and adventurous for the kids, it is can be a financial burden for the ones who have to pay for it. Our life groups get together every year to raise money for those who can't afford the trips. Our biggest fundraiser event is the annual garage sale. People who belong to the community don't mind donating old stuff that they don't use anymore. Over the years, people have given up their valuable CDs, washers, dryers, televisions, hammocks, lawnmowers, DVD players, golf clubs and many other things that would not believe. You would be surprised to see how many people will even buy an appliance and donate their old appliance. You can make money two-fold! The leaders supervise the event as a whole, but the kids are the ones who organize, make the sale, and sharpen their business skills to raise the money. This year we raised over $6,800!!!
