HOORAY! I'M ONE STEP CLOSER!

Well I've gotten permission to fundraise through the church. I went to the Board Meeting on Monday and gave them a speech. I've been allowed to fundraise for the next 6 months...however I think they may have misunderstood me...I will not place the order for the harp until I have all the money and one I order it, it will take 6 months to be delivered. So I'm not quite sure how all this will work.

At least I have a way to get the money now! In the three years that I've been saving money, I've only saved $3,600 and at the rate I was going with that, I'm just afraid that I wouldn't have been able to get the money before my 50s...

More ideas to fundraise...

• Concert(s) at the church / Take a love offering
• Silent Auction
• Ice Cream Sundae Bar
• Butter Braids
• Craft Fairs
• etc...

Tell me if you have any ideas that would work!!

Well that's all for now! I'll update later on money, more plans to fundraise, and concert/auction/whatever dates!

Thanks!

Hey everyone! I have just recently been accepted to use Adsense with Google. Each time you click on an advertisement that is on my page, I get a little bit of money.

Every cent I receive will go into my harp fund! So get a-clickin'!

Thank your all for all your support!

Yay! Harp stuff!


Wow my first post! How exciting.
I thought that maybe this blog I had to make for school would be a good way to market myself and let people know what I'm trying to do.

Well I'm trying to raise money to buy a new harp...it's going to cost around $36,000 and I have just over $3,200 saved now...so I've got a long way to go!
I know I can pull all the money together eventually, it's just going to take some work and a lot of fundraising to get the harp I want. Go to http://www.lyonhealy.com/pedal-salzedo.htm to see the harp and the details about it. The only difference is that I hope to get the harp in an ebony finish instead of the natural one...I think the red, silver, and black would be a lot prettier than just plain old natural wood.

Fundraising Ideas

• Car Wash
• Fundraising through my church (SSCC)
• Normal gigs such as parties, weddings, funerals, corporate events, etc.
• Selling candy bars at my dad's store
• Bake sale
• Adsense with Google (click the advertisements, please!)
• ???

I need a few more ideas and I really just need to get some of them going a little more. I already sell candy bars at my dad's store and do normal gigs every once in a while.

So anyway, I just wanted to start letting people know my goal of getting a new harp! More later!
