WOF benefit auction online

People have been showing their support for Write Our Future and the children of No-ofisi Primary School in wonderful ways. Lots of emails have circulated through family, friend, colleague, church, and social networks. A few businesses are discussing corporate pledges. Fund raising cocktail and dessert parties are being planned. It is very exciting to see the many varied ways people choose to help.

One of these innovative mechanisms is the online auction organized by WOF supporter Michelle McDonald. Michelle oversaw the donation of new and gently used items and is hosting this benefit auction on Facebook from now through April 24th. To peruse the goods and make a bid, visit the site by clicking here. There are also links through the WOF Facebook page.

We have now raised funds to feed 64 children for a year, but there is still work to do. What cool fund raising plan can you come up with? Put that idea into motion and let us know how it goes!
