Running Up the Razoo

Written by Melissa, Pictures by Heather

As you may know, Heather is running in a marathon in November in an effort to fundraise for PRISMS. Last night, I made a donation by clicking on the RAZOO button (found on this blog on the left-hand column) from money raised by way of Thirty-One, a direct-selling company that makes stylish handbags and utility products. Friends and family bought cool totes and bags and 25% of the sales (or $386.25) went towards the PRISMS fundraiser. You can see - a LOT of bags were sold. All for a very good cause. Adding this money to the pot took us over the $1,000 mark. It's exciting to see our progress, but we've got a ways to go to hit $10,000!

To keep up the momentum, we're selling raffle tickets at $5 each for Ariana's 1st birthday party in August. Here are a few of the prizes, thus far:




Pictured are Ping Eye 2 clubs in a Ping bag (gently used, but in great condition) - these will be the grand prize for a raffle ticket of just $5. Further, the humidor comes with 20 cigars, lighter, and cutter. In addition, a PRISMS gift basket (not pictured) will be filled with a T-shirt, cookbook, mug, and more. Other prizes are still being added to the list and we'll make updates here soon. If you have anything you'd like to donate as a prize, we'd be ever so grateful.

The fun and festivities will take place Saturday, August 17 at a Community Center near Jim and Heather's home. All are welcome to attend, just give us a shout and we will get you the information.

If you plan to attend or not, in lieu of gifts, please consider making a donation to the PRISMS fundraiser. Our continued thanks to all who have held our family in such an amazing circle of love and support.
