Blankets for the Homeless

My 8year old daughter, Nahla, came to me the other day really sad. She ended up explaining that she was sad because she knows that there are homeless people that are really cold/freezing in the winter time. She asked me if I could help her sell stuff to raise money to buy blankets for the homeless! She made her own fundraiser & with my help, is trying to reach her goal of $100 to buy blankets with. She's selling cupcakes, dipped rice crispy treats, & candy bags. She's also taking donations, money or just a blanket you no longer need! So far she's up to $13 between selling cupcakes & change that was donated. I want to keep her faith in the good in the world& in others. If anyone would be interested in buying cupcakes ($1.50 each), dipped rice crispy treats, ($1.50 each), or candy bags(assortment of candies& chocolates in sandwich bags) $1.50 each., or donating a blanket, or money(she said to make sure to tell people even change counts!) Please let me know! She's very hopeful that she can do this& I want her to have a successful fundraiser & to see that her efforts count a lot! ❤ Anything helps, even if it's just $1!

We plan on buying blankets from walmart once she's got a decent amount within the next 2 weeks. Then we'll go to uptown& pass them out along with bottles of water & sandwiches. ❤

When we reach our goal& the fundraiser is over, we plan on having a small event with cupcakes, rice crispy treats, & her candy bags for everyone to come out& enjoy! I'll keep this updated with more information!
