Oasis Coffee Fundraiser!

What are you doing this Friday between 2pm and 5pm? Why? Oh, just wondering. See, I have information saying that pretty much the coolest thing ever is happening. I know, right? Word on the street is that there's gonna be one heck of a party going on at Oasis Coffee on 7802 Goddard rd. in Boise, ID. Serious! So, feel free to stop by on the way to your graduation parties, on the way to the grocery store, to get dinner, or whatever! Oh, what's it for? To help out Colin and Kona get to Europe, duh! They say that a large portion of every drink or beverage bought will be donated towards Colin and Kona's ambassadorship to Spain, Italy and France this July!

On top of all that, check this out! Recently, a story was published in the Idaho Statesman about a group of students from Timberline High School who had raised all their money to go on a trip to France! Awesome, right? Totally-that is until the travel company they were going through went into bankruptcy. Not cool. All the money the kids had raised was flushed down the toilet- more than $40,000! Non-refundable, no cash back.
Well, on hearing of this unbelievable let-down, Colin and Kona decided they wanted to help. That's why 50% of all the funds raised at the fundraiser on Friday will be donated to this class for them to use it to fill their money hole, or to put towards a future trip.
Awesome, right?

So, what are we waiting for! Oh, right...Friday.
See ya then!

Succesful Morning!

Wow! What an awesome morning! Thanks to everyone who came out and supported Kona and I at our Pancake Breakfast fund raiser!

We arrived at Applebees (Eagle/Fairview) at about 6:30am to get things prepped for the 7am start time. People began trickling in about 7:15ish, but it wasn't until about 8:30 that it got busy. And boy did it ever! Kona and I took our own section (the other four Student Ambassadors helping had other sections) and had such a fun time bussing and serving table after table :) Not only did it provide good time to make good $$$, it also gave us the opportunity to talk more about fund-raising ideas these next couple months.

Keep checking right here for updates! Also, a twitter site will be up soon so keep your eyes open for that!

Thanks again to everyone who came out to support us!

Colin

P.S. Just so you know, we will be doing this exact same fundraiser on May 2nd. Same time, same place, hopefully even more people! Leave a comment if you want to get on top of the game and buy tickets early. Thanks again!
