United Way Anyone?!

Hey!

Just got back from stuffing over 2500 envelopes with my club for the United Way's capital fund. We had 19 people there... and I am stoked!

Tonight we decided to have a Homecoming Float and a Market Table at our Homecoming Game... which leads me to the point that in order to get those last few members at the beginning of school, market at events that a lot of people go to. Also, get some money out of it!

For example, we sell live greenery as a fundraiser on our campus... no one else does it or knows who to go through (so that's a plus)... but we are going to people place orders at the table, pay us, and then we have a fundraiser... but also, we will have information for those members who want to join or have never heard of CKI before. As usual we will have our banner draped over our table and have members wearing t-shirts, but the real kicker is getting their attention! So to do that, we are having a social to creat construction paper wreaths and then placing them at our tables (promoting the greenery) but people will have NO idea what we are doing and make them want to ask us!

Also, we are going to be involved with this year's Homecoming Parade. We decided that we would like to have the Kiwanis Club members' grandchildren/children accompany us since we focus on children, and then pass out candy with a note that says... "Need Community Service Support... e-mail us at_____." Not that straight-forward though :0).

Anyways, got a lot of studying to do for Biochemistry. Have a great night!
