Fundraiser for Joanne

I had a meeting at my house today to plan for our fundraiser.  Thank you to everyone who came and helped.  It was a great meeting.  We have a couple areas that we need help with.  We would like to add some items to our fundraiser that would appeal to men or households ex. certificates for golfing, gun ranges, carpet cleaning, pest control, movies, restaurants etc.  Please ask around and see what you are able to have donated.  See contacts below for places to take donated items.  We will need help spreading the word by facebook and also by word of mouth.

Some important dates that we have planned:
  •   April 7th-  We plan to collect donated items by this date (certificates or donated items). They can be given to me (Cari Ludlow) or Becky Smith-contact info below
  •  April 7th-May 5th :  Money collected in person or online.  For each $2 donation, 1 name will be entered for drawing.
Contacts:
  • Cari Ludlow: (coordinator) cari.ludlow@yahoo.com
  • Becky Smith: (pickup or drop off items for fundraiser) peke_smith@yahoo.com
  • Josette Kerr: (collect money for fundraiser) cjm2kerr@msn.com
Important information about gift certificates donated by an individual (not required if it is coming from an established business):
  • Please include an expiration date.  Dates are up to the person donating the service
  • Please have it signed and dated

I am so excited to see how many people are anxious to help with this fundraiser.  If you are planning to donate, start working on what you plan to donate and/or put together a gift certificate and then let me know when you know exactly what it is (ex. $25 gift certificate to scenty) and I will post the item.
I am starting this blog for my good friend Joanne Rittenhouse, who has done so much for my family and me.  Now I want to do something for her.  As many know, she is currently going through treatment for breast cancer.  Despite insurance, cancer is accompanied with a big expense.  Multiple co-pays several times a week for tests, treatments, surgeries, office visits, medications, loss of work, and more.   I am collecting items for a fundraiser.  If you have anything that you are able to donate for the fundraiser (items made, gifts certificates-possibly from a home business, restaurants, movies, etc.) please let me know.  Once I have collected items, I will start collecting money donations.  For every $2 donated, your name will be entered in a drawing.  You will be able to choose which drawing you would like to enter.  I plan to update this blog with the progress.  Thanks for all your help!

January 19, 2012.  
Joanne starting her journey.  She began with pink hair so that she wouldn't be as upset when it fell out.  Her son and daughter gave their support and "went Pink" to begin the journey with her.
