Gracias, BlackFinn!

Last Saturday, we had a fundraising event at BlackFinn in Uptown. It was such an amazing event! By selling wristbands for drink specials and raffle tickets, we raised $1600 for our trip!

We are all smiles with the turn-out of the event!

The raffle tickets we sold were for a 50-50 raffle, meaning that whoever won the raffle would win half of our proceeds from ticket sales. The man who won, a teacher at James Martin, gave us the money back. It was such a beautiful reminder to us of the generosity and kindness of people.

Thank you to everyone who came out and supported us! This fundraiser has brought our grand total of funds for the trip to about $19,000. We are one step closer to making our dream a reality. GRACIAS!
