So we got word from cash4shooz that they have partnered with....
Tom Henderson
Chief Fundraising Strategist

And they a more for our area and can pickup smaller loads, I am super excited because we now only need to have at least 2500lbs. And will not get any freight charges taken off so we will get the full $.40 a lb. So we will be raising around 1,100$ I am so excited and thankful for this!
If any of you others are fundraising they would be happy to get a call from you this company also supplies the bags and rubber bands so if you are interested give Tom a call number is listed above!!
So I emailed the cash4shooz lady and was updating her on us running out of room and if they would come and pick up what we have and all and she suggested a few things to try and then she also just contacted me saying she is referring me to another company who works my area and can take a smaller load of shoes!!! Yay! I am so excited! So once I hear from them I will update you all what is going to happen:)
In the meantime I have orders some silicone molds of fun shapes and themes and am going to be collecting used crayons, to make party favor shaped crayons to sell and all the profits will go toward the adoption so if you have crayons they will be greatly appreciated!! And next I will be sending out a post with an order form, if you have a party and you know the theme give me a heads up way before the party so I can get the molds and start making them:) You can email me at saltarski@comcast.net or private message me on facebook with your party info! Prices will be available shortly. Thank you.
Well hello there, an update on shoes, we have 58 bags of shoes that weigh between 40 to 50 lbs a bag. So we have between 2300 to 2900 lbs of shoes
Need : 10,000 lbs of shoes
Have : 2,300 lbs of shoes
_______________________________
Total : 7700lbs to go on the lesser end.
We are running out of room to store the shoes, not sure if I bit off more than I can chew on this one. I am keeping this fundraiser in my prayers to know if I should continue or put in the towel and just see if they want what I have whether I make anything off of it or not!? Because as of right now we have not raised any funds for our adoption yet, so I have been contemplating starting another one while the shoes continue to come in and just see what happens with the shoes. Thanks for all the prayers and support during this journey. God bless and have a wonderful day.
Been busy the past couple weeks, house sold, moved in with parents to save up to build and in the midst of all of that we get an unexpected call.....
From....Jen Fase and she tells us that her cousins niece is pregnant and is just going to leave her baby at the hospital and she is due in may (3 months away) and if we want to adopt the baby we should figure out what we need to do, so in the meantime I talk to Justin about it as we are in the middle of moving out of our house and Justin needs a little time to think about so we prayed and thought it about it for a couple days and we came to the conclusion why not! Life was crazy but why not! So we text Jen back and told her we were wanting g to adopt the baby and after texting for a few mins she got an email saying the niece had changed her mind and was just going to let a family member adopt the baby. So we were a little sad hearted but we did have a lot going on and we were just glad that the baby was going to have a home and not just be left at the hospital. After all was said and done I looked back and thought God were you testing us to see if we would answer the call even with all the craziness we had going on!? I am glad I get to look back and say yes! Yes we did answer the call.
I can't believe it we got a phone call from the kV post about our shoe fundraiser and they asked us questions and asked for a few pictures and they put us on the from page!! Wow such a blessing! So now I am praying the shies start rolling in we have a lot of media out there now about the need for gently used shoes, it is going to take some time to get to the goal we need but we have the time and I know God is in control and can make it happen!
