Fantastic news! I have $2,918.10 in my support account. WOOOOOOOOO!! I’m $81.90 from my first support deadline, which isn’t until May and $11881.90 from being fully funded. Thank you SO much to all of you who have supported me so far. I still haven’t heard how much I got from the CKA (chick-fil-a; just learned this abbreviation and thought I’d try it out) fundraiser, but regardless of how much it helps financially it was a success! I was able to talk to some really great people and spread the word about what I’m doing, so it was a great first fundraiser. I’m also still selling Threads of Hope bracelets and will begin selling t-shirts soon. Once the weather gets warmer, I plan on having a yard sale or two to get rid of a lot of my things. I realized over the past week that I have a lot of stuff, and I’m just not ok with that. So, what better way to remedy this than to sell it and let the proceeds go towards my trip? Genius, right? Other things I plan on doing in the next 6 months:
-At least two more fundraisers, but bigger and better!
-Try and speak at my church
-Speak at any other church/sunday school that will have me
-Put aside extra money
-Apply for a couple of scholarships
-Be a professional research subject
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Also, if you happen to be in need of a person to speak about missions, then email me please! I’d be happy to do it.

As you can see, I take excellent pictures. This would be my “I love support raising” face.
