Boxes For Big Sister - Three Days Left

Our fundraiser for Big Sister will close at the end of Sunday, September 13.  Only hours remain for you to be a part of her story by spreading the word and/or making a contribution.   Forty of the 100 boxes have been sponsored by generous family and friends from around the world.  Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts.

BOXES FOR BIG SISTER

Below is a grid of the numbers 1 through 100.  Each square represents a dollar amount, for example, square 25 equals $25.  We are looking for up to 100 people to sponsor the squares on this grid by making a donation in that amount of money to our Adopt Together account here.  All contributions are tax deductible.


Now, to make it a bit more interesting, there are several random Magic Squares on the grid which are connected to little prizes (three prizes have been found and several others remain to be uncovered), including two books signed by their authors, handmade children's gloves, and a dozen homemade cookies.  If you happen to sponsor a Magic Square, you will be mailed the prize as soon as your donation posts at Adopt Together and I have your address.

There are also ten hidden Q&A Squares.  If anyone commits to sponsoring any of those squares, I will answer the corresponding question about Big Sis after the donation posts to our Adopt Together account:

1) How old is Big Sis?
2) What's her favorite color?
3) What's her favorite food? - Big Sister says her favorite foods are apples and grapes.  She'll fit right in.
4) What will Big Sis's initials be after her adoption? - This is still under debate, but her first and last initials will be AM.  We may wait to choose a middle initial until we re-adopt here in our state.
5) How far away does Big Sis live right now from our family?
6) What's Big Sis's eye color? - Brown.
7) How often does Big Sis's special need occur? - The exact version of her special need is estimated to occur in only 1 out of 200,000 births.
8) What's her favorite fairy tale? Little Red Riding Hood.
9) What color dress does Big Sis want to wear when she leaves the orphanage? She specifically asked for a blue dress and told me her favorite color to wear is blue.
10) What's the elevation of Big Sis's city of residence?

If you have any questions or to let me know that you have made a donation sponsoring a square, please email me at viviane 8 at yahoo dot com.  You can also leave a comment here on the blog to let me know that you have sponsored a square.  The grid will be updated regularly.  Thank you.
