A very special donation today!!


Aaron and Eli donated more than a year's allowance for charity today, becoming one of our top donors! Thank you!!!!!

The yard sale stand started slow but thanks to people like Aaron and Eli and my kindergarten teacher, Mrs Shumacher, and everyone who stopped by, we did well 😄 and raised another $120. I've collected almost $1,000 now, which puts us very close to $2,000 of our funding goal of $10,000. Awesome!

Our first fundraiser is this Thursday night at Stoup Brewing. I'm so excited! Hope to see you there!!!

Upcoming Fundraisers




Hi! I will be at Greenwood Elementary this Saturday, May 30 from 9am-noon, at the Yard Sale for Africa. I will set up my Water for Water for Africa stand and be in charge of the bake sale!


I am very excited for our  fundraiser next week, on June 4 at Stoup Brewing in Ballard. You can visit me there at my stand from 5-7, and Stoup will donate $1 per pint sold.



Summer is almost here, send me an email if you want to set up water stands with me after school gets out. It's really fun and we can help a whole village get access to clean water, which feels really good!

I am working on more fundraisers around Phinney Ridge, I'll tell you all about them when I get more details. Also, I don't want to spoil the surpise!!

First donation!

Last night I deposited my first donation to our well! This weekend I raised $640 at my water stand, and since every dollar was matched, I am up to $1,240 toward my goal of $10,000 to build the well. Thanks to everyone who has supported my project. This is my friend Jan, from Water Access Now accepting our first donation for Josie's Well.
