Fundraising is in full effect!!! We are doing many things to try to fundraise approximately $9,200 for all four of us to get to Romania. We have sold T-shirts and raffle tickets and hosted bake sales. We have found out that our cupcakes are quite the money maker. For Mother's Day, we sold pre-order boxes of a tasty variety of cupcakes. Three of us made 230 cupcakes in seven hours... with just one oven! A pretty lofty feat if you ask me. We made around $500 thanks to all of our supporters and foodie friends. Special thanks to the wonderful Megan Schneider who helped us bake! Here are some pics from that night and our finished products...

In order to travel to Romania, each of us must raise a total of $2,300. If any extra money is made, equipment and supplies will be purchased to take over with us. So far, we have raised a little over $4,000 through the generous giving of our friends and family, as well as through our fundraising events. Thank you so much to all who have given to us and bought our products. You are the best! Our next big fundraiser will be a Father's Day Cupcake Sale, featuring some "manlier" cupcakes:
If you live in the Jacksonville area and would like to pre-order a box of cupcakes, please email Sarah at Sarah.Olsen@brooksrehab.org by June 12th. If you would like to make a monetary donation to our trip, you can donate online
