Goody Bag update

To date 26 goody bags have been sold. That leaves 65 girls not receiving a bag. The parents' money is coming in daily so I'll keep you posted. So far I have received money from Libby Anderson, Virginia Shepherd, Marsha Carwell, Brenda Ferralasco, Micha Kenley, Barbara Reng, Lindsey Woodard, Camille Hemund, Emilie Statler and Bridget Shemwell to help with goody bag costs. I have received word from Megan Morris, Lindsey Hawkins, Whitney Lawshe, Marlene Brown, Micha Kenley and Caitlin Maki about donating items for the goody bags. THANK YOU to everyone that has already helped out. You are all amazing. PLEASE let me know if you are able to donate items for the goody bags.

Goody Bag Fundraiser

Every year the Jonesboro AOII Alumnae Chapter sells "Finals Survival" goody bags to the parents of the collegians. Last year we collected money to help purchase items for the goody bags as well as sponsor some goody bags. In the past we only gave bags to girls with parents that purchased a bag. Last year since all the alumnae were so generous by donating so many items and money we were able to give the girls goody bags that wouldn't have received one otherwise. This was a huge mood booster for the girls. They were very excited to receive the bags and some were very surprised and touched to see that they had a bag purchased by an alumna for them. Please consider donating items for the bags and/or making a donation to help supply bags to the girls whose parents don't purchase a bag. Letters to the girls' parents will be mailed next week. I'm hopeful we will have an amazing response from the parents.

The money raised from the selling of these bags goes towards the scholarship that we have at ASU. Please let me know if you are able to help out. We have somewhere between 94-98 girls. In other words, we need a LOT of items to be donated. Reply back to this email and let me know if you will be donating money, store bought goods or homemade goods.

Item examples:

• Candy
• Prepackaged rice crispies
• Homemade cookies
• Homemade fudge
• Homemade trail mix
• Homemade puppy chow
• Homemade spicy crackers
• Homemade brownies
• Prepackaged oatmeal cream pies
• Red Bull
• Popcorn
• Etc.

The girls love it all. If you make homemade food, please go ahead and package it individually.

If you would like to donate money please make your check out to me and I'll purchase items for the goody bags or it can be used to purchase a bag for a collegian that won't get one otherwise.
