Creative Fund Raising

Being in the the Silicon Valley area of California, there is a lot of creative fund raising going on for Team in Training. For example, tonight I’m “selling”-for a donation-Father’s Day Cards at our Thursday night track practice. Complete with a stamp and post office drop off. These cards are way too cute to keep to myself–and I love how simple they are.

The fund raising on this event is going particularly slowly. So I’m looking at any option I’ve got. I’m even considering doing what one past participant did and wearing my wetsuit around for a week straight. It was very successful for him, but I’m not sure I could pull it off myself–those things get a bit hot and sticky!

Other creative fund raising ideas on the docket are a fundraiser at a dueling piano bar and a good old-fashioned talent show. Thankfully I have someone co-brainstorming and planning these events with me.

Let me know if you’d like to donate and I can ship a few cards your way. Or I can write your note and send them directly to your friend/father too. The least I’ll do is send you a sweet (as in very cool) hand-written thank you!

Peace!
