Last day of fundraising !! raised $300 !!


we raised $300!!! we exceeded out goal of $200!!

Shout out to all those pinkerton kids and teachers who made it possible.
It was impressive to see kids donating, buying, remembering to ask for money from parents a day before to help the sale and coming and supporting Rohan and encouraging him with his efforts!!

Apart from this Rohan's class also helped out Rohan in his efforts by doing chores at home and raising money for it ( master lesson plan from Miss Head to teach kids about chores and money and income and donations .. all in one lesson). Big thanks to all his class members who did chores for chennai ..They were known was Chennai Helpers :)


a big THANKS to PINKERTON FAMILIES!!

we shall update you soon on how your money was put to use :)





A special thanks to Shaun Jex for reaching out to us when we were planning this fundraiser in Andy Brown(which flopped )  and covering the story of our fundraiser here http://www.coppellcitizensadvocate.com/ ( Page 15 and 19)



The Best part was how much we enjoyed all of this .. Rohan loved making announcements on school news (live!! for the first time) , his friends enjoyed helping him reach his goal. some friends came and helped him on his sale stand to sell the goodies , A girl from 3B was soo generous she donated a lot more than she bought ( along with some others who did the same) and we all enjoyed encouragement from teachers  and their donations and Rohan enjoyed answering the teachers when asked about what he is doing? why is he doing that ? and what all they can buy in X dollars :)
