I just wanted to send you a little information about a couple of things that we are working on this month.  

First, we are planning to sell "The World's Finest Chocolate" as a fundraiser.  The chocolate bars are $1 each and each box sold will earn our class $24.  Each box contains 60 bars.  I would like to know who would be interested in participating in this fundraiser and how many boxes you would like for me to order. 

 

Also, Fall Festival is coming up soon.  (October 28) Our class can do baskets for the silent auction.  I talked to the 8th graders and they thought a basket with a "Fall Theme" and "Winter Theme" would be a good idea.  

 

Please respond to this email with:

The number of boxes of candy you would like to sell. --> Only if you would like to participate.

If you would like to help with donations for our baskets, please let me know that too.

 

Thank you so much for your support!

Sincerely, 

Mrs. Jordan
