- Thread starter Salty Cracker
- Start date
Aaron told me, but not sure if it's public knowledge yet. I'll likely have a followup blog and steal the photos I was too stupid to remember to take, and add them to the website.

In total, We raised almost exactly $1000 at the door, (which makes sense with the head count), and my wife, however crazy way she was doing the tickets made another ~$500. So clear I am handing over $1100 today to the food bank

Fantastic !!
Dropped off a cheque today at the food bank. Not a very glamorous place, but I guess why would it be.

he had a new baby a while back. Haven't heard from him since.
But you would think he would be on here once in a while.

That is a terrific donation, pretty darn good for a first go. Too bad I missed it, looked like a great turnout.
It kind of sucks. Not only was the foodbank quite shitty about taking the money, they won't return my call or emails about 'where my receipt is'.
My kid's class actually raised $1150 for ronald mcdonald house this year, it would have been -awesome- if I had known, as I would have had my kid announce she was 'doubling it' with the money. Ah well, lesson learned. I have the cashed cheque, but revenue canada won't accept that as a receipt according to my accountant. Leaves a REAL bad taste in my mouth.
Okay, done griping

I wonder if maybe it is more fitting to find a reputable "save the reefs" type of a charity next time. Just a thought. I am surprised these charities are being so difficult to deal with... I am sure we can find a million of them out there that would be far more grateful to be receiving such a large sum of money.
