Paint The Town BLUE! was a SUCCESS!! :D

I am extremely proud to say that I reached all my goals for my first fundraiser, Paint The Town BLUE!

$500.00 was raised at the event + $231.00 online, which gives us a grand total of $731.00 raised for The Autism Society of America! 

There were also over 50 people at the event & everyone had a fantastic time.  I received positive feedback from each person there and it was great to see all the hard work really pay off. :) 

Also, we were able to collect a large amount of school supplies for Crossroads School.  The supplies filled a huge container and weighed 34 lbs in total!

I have to say a HUGE thank you to all my friends and family that helped me before, during & after my event! <3  Your help means the world to me & I would not have been able to do it without you!

Thanks to: my mom, my aunt, Marty (owner of Irish Times), Candi, Filomena, Robin, Amy, Will, Jenn and Anthony.

Additional thanks to those who donated items for the raffles: my mom, Bald Vinny (head Bleacher Creature), Brooklyn Cyclones, Samanta Darnell, Robin and Red Lobster.


I am even more eager, prepared & confident to host my next fundraiser and it's only a matter of time before I turn all my ideas into reality once again!

STAY TUNED! & as always, thanks for all your support! <3
