Still Fund Raising... one sale item at a time!
So the teenager is finding new and interesting things to do for fund raising every day. This week she is making headbands to sell to her friends and family, and other interested parties. This is me wearing such a headband. But they have gotten even more cute. I wish she'd get many more photographs taken. Because we are talking seriously cute. (Not me, the headbands...). She is giving all proceeds from the headbands to the ACS. And after the Relay? She'll be collecting all of the proceeds for her Send Keli to Europe! fund. So I hope she sells a lot of then then, too. :)
Also during the Relay, she'll be participating in another of her hair-brained (hahaha) schemes. She has twice shaved her head in support of people going through chemo. The first time she was a middle-schooler and didn't know anyone personally. A few months later, her own dad was diagnosed with his brain tumor. The second time was March of 2006 when her friend's mom was struggling at one of her lowest points of a very long battle with breast cancer. Kimberly died almost exactly a year later. So this year at Relay, Keli will be shaving her head once again, in support of her dad, who will be the honorary chair, and Kimberly. Kimberly's daughter will be on hand to give a little help with the shaving, Keith will lend a hand, too. And I'm hoping that many people will pitch in a buck or two to show their support. She's not so great at advertising, though. So... if anyone reading is interested, you can donate to Keli's head shaving cause here. Thanks.
