If you LOVE what I am doing, then I KNOW you will LOVE what my older sister, Ashleigh, is doing also! Ashleigh has raised over $30,000 in products and monetary donations just this year!!! She has had fundraisers for St. Jude's Childrens Research Hospital, American Heart Association, Double R Horse Rescue, Hosted a "Free Market for Seniors" (I helped too!) and most recently is having a Holiday Giving Drive to help bring smiles to elderly residing in Nursing Homes! I would LOVE for you to check out her website too!
Ashleigh has grown up visiting nursing homes and she has realized that not all elderly people have family that visit them often. So, this year (2012) Ashleigh wanted to help make the elderly folks residing in nursing homes here in Northeast Nebraska smile! :) So, she has been collecting stuffed animals and teddy bears and has been visiting nursing homes and letting everyone pick a special present from her! :) Stuffed animals are very therapeutic and everyone loves getting a little gift! So far, Ashleigh has collected over 350 teddy bears and already visited one nursing home! :-)
Ashleigh's "Strike A Match for the Kids at St. Jude" Fundraiser was a HUGE success! Ashleigh wanted to donate her $24 4H Premium Check to the kids at St. Jude. She started asking people to "Match" her donation!!! She ended up raising over $2,100 for the US 92 St. Jude Radiothon held in Norfolk, NE! Then she stayed around to answer phones and take pledges!!!
Ashleigh raised over $30,000 worth of HAY for a Horse Rescue in Kearney, NE with her 10th Birthday Wish to help horses in need! She raised over $1,500 in monetary donations and networked to have over $30,000 worth of hay donated across the nation!
