Whew!
I know that it has been a while since I last posted, but I have been so busy with Cupcakes for Cancer! We are finally done and I am proud to report that we raised $133! My parents were kind enough to match whatever I made (I doubt that they thought we would raise so much from high-schoolers). When I brought the money to our Key Club adviser here at the high school, she saw the $266 and decided to donate the remaining $34 to make it an even $300!!
I am so happy that it was such a success and I immediately e-mailed Lakeland hospital about donating the money and they set up a time and a place at the new Cancer Care Center in our area. This morning, I got to visit the new center and take a mini tour of the facilities. It was so beautiful!! And they printed up a giant check for me to hand to the president of the facility and we even got to take a couple pictures! It was such a great experience and I am so thankful for everything I have and that I had the unique opportunity to give such a huge and appreciated gift back to my community.
