UPDATE: the ONE:27 Project

To All:

We are uncertain what happened to the site where we hosted the Change 4 Change Fundraiser, but think it was hacked. All the awesome encouragement and comments shared from those who contributed and our support letter was lost. We are ambivalent about restarting it at this point.

After paypal fees, we raised $992.94!!! Nearly 10% of our ultimate goal! If we didn't have the Paypal fees, we certainly would have reached that! We are so very appreciative of those who donated and those who passed on the word. I am sure we will have more fundraisers here in the future. Not sure what direction we will take... but please continue to pray for us.

I got fingerprinted last week. Ben will get his this week. We will begin to compile the needed info for our home study update including physician appointments, fingerprints and more releases. Oh, and MORE MONEY! I hate that part! Just wished our referral were here already! BUT I KNOW God's timing is best, and while we could always wait to get "something else" in order, will everything ever be in the right place at the right time? Or is any time a good time...? You see how my mind races, lol!

So, fundraising and earning extra dough... I'm still taking pictures. It is more time intensive than one may think. I've collected and bought lots of fun props to use. I seem to give more away than keep, but I'm learning to be more business minded as I spend more time with other photogs (even if it's learning from them virtually!). I love it. I love seeing my photographs on print! I've sold my first canvas, and TWO more have been ordered! Outside of pictures, I'm out of fundraising ideas. =( so, help! help me generate some ideas, friends! Please leave me comments below.

<3 to all my Bloggin' Family!
