A little conversation starter I made for my desk

This was fun, pleased my inner kindergardener, and took about fifteen minutes flat to make. Materials: coffee stir sticks, coffee cup, coffee creamer container, file card, tape, paper clip, dental floss, thumb tack. Whee!





From the back:





One of my coworkers stopped to admire it, and suggested I speak with my employer about funding this project as one of their larger charitable projects for the year. I'd already submitted the paperwork for them to match my $50 kick off contribution, but if I could get them to kick in a larger amount, that would be terrific. I've downloaded the press kit which I'll give them to help persuade.

MyCharityWater Campaign Report:
$5,000 CAMPAIGN GOAL
$345 RAISED SO FAR
17 people served
11 donations

I'm still mulling over ideas about how I can draw attention to the campaign, to persuade people to contribute (without making myself a pain in the ass, I mean). I'm soliciting ideas. More on this later.
