Default (Soon-to-be) Fundraising Success Story

So, I've been selling my soaps and other handmade beauty products at my school. I've made about $30-40 or so in the past two weeks, but that's not the real success story.

I've been offered the chance to get my soaps on the shelves of the coffeehouse/store my school's founder runs, in addition to making gift baskets of both my bath and beauty products and the teas and coffees they sell! Currently, Mr Adam (my school's founder) and his wife make the tea/coffee baskets, but they don't enjoy it- while I jump at any chance I have to make gift baskets of any sort!

Also, Mr Adam knows the manager of the local Whole Foods, and he's going to talk to her about getting my soaps and other things on the shelves of WF!!!

Never underestimate the power of a fundraiser. Ireland, HERE I COME!

Whole Foods???
I hope your Soaps and such is going to be in Whole Foods all around because I Rachel would LOVE to buy your Soap.
And I have no doubt you will be able to go to Ireland now.
