Each year our church participates in a denominational-wide hunger campaign to raise awareness to extreme poverty and hunger. Families spend several weeks reading a devotional that offers action steps to make a difference in the fight against hunger.
Our boys each received a plastic fish that is used to save change that will be donated to various ministries at the end of the campaign. They decided to have a garage sale to earn extra money to put in these fish. Here’s the text from a flyer my oldest created to advertise the sale to friends at church (very cute huh):
“Peter Fish
Fundraiser
Hi we’re Levi and Luke! We are trying to raise money to go in our peter fish. So we could raise a lot of money to help the poor, we thought we could have a garage sale. We’ll have coffee and doughnuts starting at 7:35, and lemonade at 11:20.
It’s Saturday, November 3rd, 2007 from 7:30 till 1:30 at our house.
Bring donations to our house!”
