Fundraiser for 8th Grade Field Trip

by C.J.
(Lake Orion, Mi)

When I was in 8th grade our class went on a field trip to Washington D.C. for one week. It was an expensive trip, but so worth every penny! So in order to help out with this trip, we the students were allowed to participate in a candy fundraiser to help pay for some of the costs.

I personally raised $150 for myself. The whole trip cost $500 so that $150 was a BIG help. I had a lot of help from my parents. They took the order forms to work and had their co-workers buy some. I also went door to door.

I pretty much brought this candy fundraiser sheet with me EVERYWHERE I went. You NEVER know when you could run into someone who wants to buy some candy to help a student out!
