I want to once again thank you all for your generous donations towards Relay2009. Today is the final day in Relay 2009, and as promised, I have a winner to announce for the FUNdraising Fabric Giveaway.
First a few facts. With your help I raised another $375 towards my goal, and I met that goal thanks to you all. Better still, the Delaware Quilts team ended up in first place for the year. There is no glory in that achievement. Actually it is more of a challenge to all of the event teams, showing them that the Delaware Quilts team is fighting cancer all year round, not just during the actual event. And we certainly didn’t do it for any awards or recognition; we did it purely to help fight cancer.
And it sure sets the stage for another busy fundraising year in 2010.
Of those of you who donated, I personally know six, six of you are on one or more of my Yahoo Groups, including Mysteries For Relay, and three of you are total strangers, people who are not in my email address book or to my knowledge someone I have ever heard from before.
Six of you donated in memory of someone. I am promising you each right now that I will light a luminaria in that person’s memory at the 2010 Relay.Each one of you donated for a reason, other than just a chance to win a box of fabric. Thank you.
The lucky winner has been notified by email….. Barbara W from New Jersey!
