Today I finally made the time to get "on top of things". Justine and I dedicated our lunch to try and raise money for Jade by donations from the staff and students. I was surprised to see how many students donated their loose change to this benefit. By the end of lunch I'm guessing we made roughly around 40 dollars. Even though this doesn't seem like that much money, I was happy with that rough estimate because we had only been collecting for about 25 minutes. It was also all of the spare change that people had. I'm hoping if Justine and I put the jug out to collect money every lunch until next Friday we can raise a decent amount of money. Either Monday or Tuesday next week we will also have a bake sale. I think that a bake sale would make a good profit because students are always looking for sweets!
Justine and I also have intentions to go "canning" Saturday. I was thinking that I would ask the Shaw's supermarket near my house for permission to sit out at their entrances to see if anyone would like to make donations. We will make a poster bored to display what were are supporting. The poster will also show a picture of Jade and the balance dog that she will hopefully be getting.
