Soliciting for Fundraisers

OSC has 2 worthwile causes that he is raising money for:

1. Fieldtrip to Sleeping Bear Dunes - They are taking pledges for a walk-a-thon coming in May. They are hoping for each child to raise at least $70 to off set the parents' cost.

2. 30 Hour Famine :: Fri., April 28th - Sat., April 29th(5th-12th graders): It's really quite simple. Between February 1st and when the famine starts, you collect donations from friends, family, neighbors, and anyone else you can think of who wants to provide food, medicine, and other necessities for needy kids around the world. You stop eating at 2:30pm on Friday, April 28th, and come to the church at 7pm to spend the last 25½ hours together with other students for support, fun, learning, and God stuff. *OSC did this last year and had a wonderful time. We were so proud of him for sticking with it for the whole 30 hours!*

So, if any of you wonderful people out there would like to donate to any of these fundraisers, please send in your donations.

Thanks in advance!

If we send you a check who do we write it to? Dumb question, but just want to make it easy for it to get to the right place.

Thank you for your consideration and that is a great question! I haven't really thought it out myself. It sounds shadey to send it in our name, but it also sounds the easiest - until I know who at each event to send the money to. They are out of school for a week, so I won't know until they go back who to send it too. The famine is next Friday and I can find out Sunday who the check should be made out to. Hope that helps!

I have done a 30 hour famine! It was fun but hard! I just did it for fun because my friend wanted me to. e
