We took July and August off from any serious fundraising other than our own savings efforts and now in September we have three fundraisers going on! It's crazy around here!
1. Our friend Crystal has organized a Mary Kay cosmetics fundraiser for us. This fundraiser is going on through Sunday, September 20th. She's generously donating 100% of all profits to our adoption fund! To order online, go to her website. Be sure and write Andy & Mary Ann (Mary Ann) in the notes section so she'll know to put it towards our fundraiser. Mary Kay has lots of awesome products that would make great Christmas gifts for teachers, family and friends so be sure to check it out! They even have a men's line!
2. Our friend Kira is doing a Jamberry nails adoption fundraiser. To order, visit her website and at checkout select Mary Ann's Adoption Fundraiser from the drop down menu. Jamberry features awesome nail wraps that are super fun and more affordable than going to a salon! Again, these make awesome Christmas gifts! For local friends, Kira will be at my house to show you how to apply the nail wraps next Monday, September 21st at 7pm.
3. Our third fundraiser this month is another yard sale!!! Yay! This is our 3rd and last yard sale for the year. Our past yard sales have proven very productive in bringing in funds so we're eager to do this one last time this year! We have plenty of treasures left from our last sale so all we have to do is set it out! We also have a number of things that have recently been dropped off as well as products of our own decluttering (hello, turning-guest/craft room-into-nursery!!!). Yard sale will be held Saturday, September 26 from 7am-1pm or when people stop coming.
As always, we thank all of you for your support during this process! We truly couldn't do it without the prayers, help and support from our friends and family! We have already raised over 1/3 of the total amount needed to complete our adoption. Our goal is to be completely funded by the end of the year! Will it happen? We'll see!
