The Dog Ate My Fundraiser

by William
(Miami, Florida)

Back in third grade I was doing a magazine fundraiser for school! I was reluctant at first, but after some convincing from my mom, and some added incentives (contests & prizes) I started selling every subscription I could!

I hit up the grocery store, the church, even the local basketball courts!

I never realized until then how many people subscribed to Reader's Digest!

Anyways, after selling what I thought was enough subscriptions to take home a Huffy Dirt Bike, I left my envelope laying around the house. That wasn't a smart idea, because the next day I found the remains scattered around the house! Why would a dog be interested in money and a list of subscriptions? I'll never know.
