Fundraising getting off the ground

In 1 week since we launched our fundraiser for Kait's Washington D.C. trip, we have managed to raise 14.21% of our goal!  I am very excited by this initial interest.  Without the fundraising initiatives, Kait's trip to D.C. would not be a reality.  We have been greatly touched by those that have shown their support either in donation or spreading the word. I am very very thankful for those that have contributed.  For all of those who can't, I ask you to post the link on your facebook, twitter, blog or other social media, send emails, or whatever you can do, to get the word out.  What people lack in money, your time and your word of mouth are just as important. Here is the link to our fundraising page:  http://www.gofundme.com/Kaits-Washington-DC-trip I am also making inquiries at this time from civic organizations in our local area, approx 12 letters went out by mail this week.  I am also looking for local stores in both Kissimmee and Orlando to let us set up a gift w

Trip to Washington DC

I am in the midst of raising funds for my daughter Kaitlyn to go to Washington D.C. and to hopefully, go with her as a chaperone.  I have never been to Washington D.C. and this is something that we have both wanted to do.  The trip is very ambitious.  The tickets alone are $1900.  The 5 day trip includes stops at all the must sees in Washington.
