The Lucas’ are on fire! Not only did they put together a garage sale fundraiser, they added additional ways to raise funds by selling treats and awareness ribbons.
Their “ever so creative and generous friend”, Tanya, came up with the idea to have awareness ribbons made up. They are hot pink and said ‘Unite for Georgia’ on one end and “Cure SMA” on the other. They sold them for $1 at their recent garage sale. They also enlisted the help of Grandma to bake her famous cinnamon buns for the sale and they sold like…well delicious cinnamon buns! Here is what Kristen wrote about their event:
Well. after lots of help from family and friends we joined our community today and had a garage sale. Thank you to all of you yet again that donated items, helped me get organized, showed up ready to buy or just to smile. Thank you especially to my mom who stood at the Unite for the Cure table for 7 hours telling complete strangers why it is so important. Even I don’t have the energy for that!
In the end we raised $895.00 for pediatric palliative care in the city and $405.00 for Unite for the Cure. That’s $1300.00! Not bad for a day’s work. Thanks for the cinnamon buns mom, the chocolates Abby and Natalie and the ribbons Tanya.
Great job Lucas family!!!
