If you didn't know, I'm currently fundraising for my CIBC Run for the Cure breast cancer goal of $1,500! I have a little way to go (so any donations help.. even 5$) but I have an excellent fundraiser going on this Friday which should nicely increase my total.
It's a nifty little fundraising idea that I think anyone could do fairly easily.
It's called (da-dum-da-dum, drull roll please....) Drink for the Cure.
Tagline is: If you're going to raise a glass at least let it be for a good cause.
This Friday I'm having very close friends and family (due to the slight liability factor, haha) come over to my place where I and some friendly volunteers will cook a bbq dinner, provide refreshments and door prizes for a small 'donation'.
Essentially Drink for the Cure prices will be:
- 10$ for dinner which includes (Burger, Salads (potato, green leafy ect) and a beer/ cocktail.
- 4$ per drink (Beer/Wine: cheaper than the bar, more expensive than the liquor store)
- 5$ for the mixed Pink Cure martini
- 4$ for shots
We'll also have a few baked goods for sale (like pink booby cupcakes) mm... pink frosting.
Basically we are going to take the total amount, minus what we paid for everything and then the rest will go to our fundraising goals. I hope to bring in at least a few hundred dollars after expenses.
Hey,
This sounds like fun, I will try to stop by. What time?
