This week, our group was very productive. After hearing from the panel of non-profits, we were motivated to start fundraising. After brainstorming the previous week, we decided that we would try to pair up with a small, local business. After a few failed attempts to reach a business that was willing to meet with us, we contacted 3 Natives. 3 Natives is a small business, but is rapidly growing in popularity. Annelise made the first call, and then I met with the manager, Anthony. I explained to him our goal and gave him some information on our non-profit, Feeding Children Everywhere. He was immediately very amenable to helping out and said that he had wanted to do a charitable event for a while. We came upon an agreement very quickly. On Friday, December 5th, we will have an event at 3 Natives from 3-5pm in which 100% of the proceeds from every “chronic” acai bowl sold will go towards our charity. We made flyers to place around school and in the 3 natives shop. We plan to make announcements at assembly, send emails to the school, and spread the word as fast as we can in the upcoming week. We are all looking forward to the event and hopefully it will turn out to be a success for 3 Natives as well as our cause.
