Calling All Cash!

Calling All Cash!

I know from some of you guys that you are in the process of doing fund raisers, large or individual-scale, for FMSC. If you are sitting on bags of quarters, donation checks, jars of change, etc., now is the time to turn them in to me! You can all feel free to continue collecting your quarters or dollars or whatever all the way until the event, but let's not hold on to donations any longer than we have to!

Some of you also plan to just donate your $40 share, or to give even more to be able to allow others to pack who cannot afford their $40, but are just waiting for the right time to do it. That time is now! (And that website is here!)

For the past couple of MobilePack events, pretty close to all of the money has come in at or really close to the date of the event. For those past events, there were funding deadlines, but they were not particularly enforced. Now, however, with the number of MobilePack events increasing constantly, we don't want to continue to make FMSC front the funds to purchase raw materials for MobilePack events like they have in the past.

The second installment (the second 1/3) of the $34,000 required for our September MobilePack day is due on July 25! That is when they will purchase those big ton bags of rice and soy, the boxes of veggies and chicken flavoring, and book the 58' trucks for our event. Let's help FMSC by providing the moneys needed to make that investment, rather than having it all fall on their shoulders once again.

I am available to pick anything up from those of you who don't see me on a regular basis, just let me know and I will stop by! Just email me at fmscdallas@gmail.com.

Also, if you would like to help reach this goal (or the final goal, which is due at the event) by participating in another fund raiser, and you need M&M tubes, tribute cards, change jars, or any other materials, I am happy to provide you with those as well and will bring them to you.

Thank you all so much for being a part of this incredible team! Don't forget that your $40 donation will feed over 200 children for a day!
