priorities for the next 6 weeks!!

hi

we have less than 6 weeks to complete our holiday giving program.
here is my thoughts on how to prioritize our efforts.

now until november 15th.

priority- sponsors for the remaining flannel blankets.
so far, we have 82 sponsored. have 212 remaining.
sponsorship is $15 a piece.
struggling single moms are making these blankets and are being
compensated for their efforts.
we have a number of organizations that have already requested
all of our finished blanket donations.
sponsors can use paypal.com and bigheartdesigns@yahoo.com
can be used for the recipient address. tax receipt will be provided
for all sponsorships.

november 16th- december 1st.

priorty- gifting families. this year we will be gifting 30 local families in need.
so far, we have 6 gifting families. need 24 more! each gifting
family will be providing gifts, gifts cards... for a local family in need.
businesses, departments, friends,... can join together to gift a family
as well. all 30 gifting families will be "assigned" their family by december 1st.
delivery of gifts will be by december 15th.

december 2nd- december 15th.

priority- sponsorships of food baskets and care baskets.
this is a perfect time for last minute
families who are interested in gifting to create baskets of food and care
products. these baskets will be given to local families in need.
i always get last minute requests for gifts and this is a perfect way of
making sure that this requests get gifted!

i hope this helps give some idea of how the next 6 weeks will be best
organized. please email me with any questions.

thanks so much. megan
