Christmas Cookie Orders are CLOSED!!

No.More.Cookies.Please.

The last of the cookies were delivered today.  Over the last week and a half, we baked just shy of 100 dozen cookies.  Many thanks to all who ordered, and many thanks to my hubby for all of his help in the kitchen!!

Because my in-laws were generous enough to donate most of our ingredients, this sale was almost all profit.  We netted just over $450, and because the March of Dimes is currently doing a donation matching campaign, all money turned in by the end of the month is doubled.  That means that Team Graciebelle has raised just over $900 so far.  Not too shabby for Christmas Cookies.  :-)

Our next project is the Pampered Chef 29-day raffle for February.  For more details on how to win some great prizes for just $10, visit our fund raising page. 

March for Babies 2012 Fund Raising is Under Way!!

In an effort to change our fund raising tactics, Team Graciebelle is starting early this year!!  We have just launched our Christmas Cookie sale, and we hope to have raffle tickets for sale within the next few weeks for our Pampered Chef calendar raffle.  For more information about either of these activities, or to see what else we might have planned, visit our fundraising page.

2011 March for Babies - A Success for Team Graciebelle

We would like to extend many heart-felt thanks to everyone who donated toward our 2011 fund raising goal.  Two weeks before the walk it looked like we would not reach our goal of $5000.  Even 16  hours before the walk, it looked like we would fall $500-$750 short.  Thanks to a wonderful last-minute effort on the part of Jeff's brother, Kip, we not only reached, but surpassed our goal of $5000.  The total raised by Team Graciebelle was $5260.31.To see pictures from Saturday's walk, click here. 

We are already putting some thought into alternative fund raisers for next year's March for Babies.  Check out our fundraising page to see what we are planning.
