Our project is finally picking up some speed! Wendy and I aren't sure if the Chick Fil A fundraiser would be approved through asb. We think we should get some of world's finest chocolates to and sell it maybe at the next swim meet that I go to. I'm really excited about this project and continue to learn more about it everyday. I learned that diseases from water that isn't filtered cause so many unnecessary deaths all over the world. Something with such a simple solution is taking lives and causing disease.
Anyways we aren't too worried about the Chick Fil A fundraiser because we are still in contact with their marketing team and they've even suggested some new ideas for us. What we will do is purchase a Lifestraw for our presentation to demonstrate how it works! It's pretty inexpensive so it shouldn't be a problem for us to get. There we'll also ask the audience about where they can donate. There's a lot more money for us to raise, but I'm glad we've made some progress.

Blog post #4: Change of Plans
In the past few days I've learned that Life Straws are getting more and more publicity. I've seen that they made an effort to advertise this product and encourage others to donate towards giving people access to clean water. I actually realized that I like planning and fundraising and all the aspects of this project. Also, I think the best decision for this project to to change the aim a little. Instead of trying to do multiple fundraisers, I want to put all of my effort into making this Chick Fil A event successful because after I spoke to the marketing team I see that it's possible to bring in a lot of money just from one Spirit Night event. So I guess my partner, Wendy and I are still planning and coming up with new ideas to advertise this event and if it'll be enough. My biggest concern is that we won't be able to get over 150 people to come, which is about the amount of people we need to raise a significant amount of money. I also didn't realize that the event had to be planned and scheduled around a month before so we have plenty of time to make adjustments. It is a small project. However, I think it'll make an impact not only for a community in need, but also our community. It'll bring together lots of people in support of a much needed donation. When it's time for the event I'll make sure to let everyone know so you guys can come to support as well!
