We recently inquired of other families in the adoption process about successful fundraisers and were introduced to a unique and fun way to fund-raise.
We have bought a 2000 piece puzzle of Lijiang, China and we are asking friends and family members to sponsor puzzle pieces for $5 each. We will then write the name of the person/family on the back of the piece/pieces. When we have completed the puzzle we will glue it together and have it framed. The puzzle will then hang in our home as a reminder to us and to our daughter of all those who helped us bring her home. I am super excited about this fundraiser for a number of reasons. First,
our family loves a good puzzle. Eleanor really enjoys doing puzzles
and this allows her to have a part in the process. Second, this puzzle will be a
visual reminder of those who helped us bring our little one home and third, it will be a great project to help us pass the time as we wait to bring Little A home.
If you would like to sponsor a puzzle piece you can -
* click on the donate button found in the right hand column of our blog and then leave a comment on this post so that we will know what names to add to the puzzle pieces
* mail us cash or a check with a note indicating what names you would like on the pieces
* give us the money the next time you see us
We will post pictures of the puzzle as it progresses and look forward to sharing a picture of the finished product hanging in our home in the months to come.
