Thon
Hey my pixie's friends. Sorry it's been a while since I've been on here. It's been a busy year!
I was just writing to tell you 2 things.
First I am really excited about the Penn State Dance Marathon, affectionatly known as THON. My good friend and I are trying to dance in it this year. It is the largest student run phlanthropy in the WORLD and helps raise money for the Four Diamonds Fund in the fight against piedatric cancer... if you want to know more go to www.thon.org but it is over all a wonderful thing I'm very excited!!!
and Secondly I was wondering if you guys could help me out with fund raising ideas. I have sent out letters to friends and family but I need to raise $1500 to even be concidered in the drawing for people who get to dance. and my friend and I are going 'canning' this weekend (those annoying people who stand out side of stores and say please give me your change... yeah that will be me this weekend ) but other than that I don't know how to raise money... any suggestions??
Thanks,
Pet

Just the right weather for a bikini car wash, or was that watch?
Seriously, how about a dance event of your own, with people paying $5.00 for a dance.
That depends on your support base, of course.

If you have an aluminum recycling center... take in cans.... start collecting from people around you ... it will add up!
Do you live in the dorms or an apartment?

I live in the dorms, and PA doesn't do money for recycling cans...

How about a bake sale? get as many people as you can to make cookies, brownies, fudge...

How much time do you have to raise this $$$, how much, if any, do you have to work with now and how many, if any, active supporters do you have to work with you?
