How is it going? I hope your day went better than mine. I had an 8.30am exam for the umpteenth time and was totally exhausted after it (only had about 4 hours of sleep). Pharmacy school is definitely challenging, but keeping my goal in sight always helps me get through it. I spent the rest of my day cooking and cleaning because sadly I had abandoned my place for a few days. But oh well, I'll survive!
So....... I've been thinking about doing a fund raising event for a while now and have been brain storming over a few ideas. I thought of doing a bake/yard sale, but have done that a few times before and decided not to because I wanted something a bit more fun and interactive. So when the youth group at my church came up with the idea for us to pick a month and host an event, a light bulb came on. I thought about different events, but finally decided to host a game night and charge a little fee (about $10) that will be donated to a charity. It will be a night of fun games/people, food, drinks and music. I am also thinking of doing a little give away at the end of the event just to thank people for being involved and also provide information on the charity supported. Deciding a month to do this has been tricky for me because of my crazy schedule but I intend to do it within the next 3 to 4 months.
I haven't decided what charity to support yet and will be needing your help with that. Please leave a comment nominating a charity that you think is deserving of the donation and state your reason why. The organization can be anywhere in the world (preferably one with a website or an account where the donation can be deposited) and should support a worthy cause. I will also set up a paypal account soon, so that more donations can be made. Anyone in the DMV (DC, Maryland and Virginia) area interested in collaborating with me, please leave a comment indicating so and I will get back to you with the details (the more, the merrier). Also feel free to share your game ideas and any other suggestions you think will help make this a wonderful event. I will be keeping you all posted on my progress as I go along and will definitely need all of your prayers to execute this. I am UBER excited and I hope we can raise enough money for a very deserving organization. Well until next time, stay blessed and motivated! xxx
