Money Raised

The telethon went great. I think we were able to get around $150,000. I took about $9,000 of that on my phone line. The phones were consistently ringing for two and a half hours. Most of the contributions coming in were for $100. I did have some $500, $250, $200, and $150. I know one of my co-workers received a phone call for $3,000. Cool, huh?

Well, it's off to work I go. Hope you all have a wonderful day.

BTW - I forgot to tell you the kid got his braces and is doing well. Let's just say that wax is our friend!

Did you say what the fundraiser was for? Was it the storm damage? That is really cool and a considerable sum of money.

I think telethons are great. I often give money that way--you just get inspired.

I've been busy with a bad internet connection--going on 2 weeks. Thank goodness for my neighbor's wireless.
