FUNDRAISiNG MODE!

You will notice that much has been added to the right column of our blog regarding fundraisers we are planning or currently holding.

1. Our Chip-in is a place where you can donate funds securely through paypal towards our adoption fund. Just click on the Orange Button to your right.

2. I will be selling our Ugandan beads and bracelets this Tuesday night, January 18th at the Sunset Middle School Chili Cookoff Event from 4-8pm. We'd love to see you there.

3.Chick-fil-A night for the Hulshofs! Visit the Brentwood Chick-fil-A on Franklin Road between 5-8pm on Thursday, February 17th and mention our name or hand them our fundraising card. Chick-fil-A will generously donate 15% of their proceeds on this evening to our adoption fund. There will also be donation buckets at each register for additional monies - 100% of the proceeds in the buckets will go to our adoption fund.

4. We are raffling off 2 tickets for the Predators vs Red Wings hockey game on April 2nd. If you'd like to enter, please visit our UPS store or contact me at v_elaine@yahoo.com and I'll make arrangements with you.

5. We are planning a golf tournament in May at the Hermitage Golf Course. We may also have a dinner and silent auction. More information will be posted on our blog after we confirm some details.

6. We are selling the beautiful Ugandan beads and these really cool silicone cuffs through 147 Million Orphans Organization. The beads are handmade and very colorful so they'll match whatever you have on and the cuffs are larger and noticeable so they'll be great conversation starters about adoption and sharing the gospel. Remember God did not leave us as orphans either.


We also have some other fundraising ideas in the works so please check back often to see what's going on in our world and how you can get involved!

It is hard to ask for financial help. We so appreciate any amount that friends, family or strangers are able to give. We truly value your gift and God does too. Thank you for helping us on this journey to bring our little one home forever.

We love you guys.
Valerie & Chris
