You are asking what more could there be? Well, how about our Fundraisers! We host several fundraisers throughout the year to raise funds to support all of the services in our last blog as well as a few other we did not mention yet. This year we hosted our First Annual Spring Luncheon at the Painesville United Methodist Church. Our theme was a salad lunch buffet with over 15 different types of salads. The fashions were "recycled". Each model went on the hunt to find fashions from thrift stores or clearance racks. Each model stayed within a $50 budget.
Our most popular fund raiser is our Annual Chinese Auction. We hold it at the Father Tulley Hall at St. Bede's Church in Mentor. With over 100 items to bid on how can you not have fun. We also have a 50/50 and a larger items table. Did I mention all the homemade food we offer. Our next one will be held on May 18th in 2012.
This Sunday we will be having a Quarter Auction. This is our first time at this venture and hope it becomes an annual event. It will be held at the Senior Center in Fairport, Ohio. We will let you know how it goes. We have 10 vendors that are donating 2 items to be auctioned off. Should be a lot of fun.
In the past we have also had Reverse Raffles, Book Reviews, Impersonators and Bus Trips.
Hope we see you at one of our events. The next blog will talk about one of the services these fundraisers support.....
