Cashmere for Shakespeare~A Middle School Fundraiser!

As a single Mom, I have my challenges in keeping up with all of my children's activities both in and out of school! Between my two kids' various school away trips this year I am finding the need to do some creative fundraising to pay expenses. I have come up with the idea of selling cashmere sweaters that I have been collecting as a means to raise funds for my daughter's middle school class trip to the Shakespearean Festival in Ashland Oregon. Hence.. Cashmere for Shakespeare! The funds would not only help my daughter, but also students whose parents cannot afford to pay for their trip.

I will be posting photos of each of the sweaters along with descriptions and measurements. When you see a sweater that you would like to bid on, simply send me an email with the item number of the sweater and the amount of your bid. I will update each sweater as often as possible daily for a one week period. Starting and ending time of auction to be determined soon! We are a non-profit and all proceeds from the auction will be tax deductible and we will issue a letter of thanks to each auction winner for tax purposes, so please dig deep!! 


If you do not want to wrap yourself in the "wonderfulness" that is cashmere, but still want to help.. I will be adding a donor button to the blog where you can send in a tax deductible donation.


Thank you for your support, this experience will be incredibly enriching for our Middle Schoolers, and will create memories to last a lifetime!
