Dear Readers,
We are JUST CUZ! In our organization we sell homemade things and donate the money to charity. We (Annaliese, Eliana, and Erin) do it every year, and it is so fun! We all have different jobs. Erin is the president, Annaliese is the manager, and Eliana is the Asst. manager. But we all go and sell the items to people around the neighborhood together. It started in the summer of 2008. We sold handmade bracelets and earned $140.00 to donate to the Ronald McDonald house. Last year (2009) we made handmade bookmarks. Since it was a very cold day and it was around the holidays we only got to earn $50.00 and we used it for the Relay For Life. This year we are in the midst of making lots of packets of homemade hot cocoa. We have three flavors: Polly Penguins Peppy Peppermint, Vixen's Very Vanilla, Sally Seals cinnamon cocoa, and Dashers Double Chocolate cocoa. We have tried them all and they are sooo good. We have been selling them for $1.50 and have already earned $24.00. But we hope that by next week we will have lots to donate to the Vermont Children's Hospital. We had someone take it to the bank and set it where there was a big staff meeting. That's how we earned the $24.00. But after Christmas we're going to sell hot cocoa ourselves to people in the neighborhood (Erin's neighborhood. Annaliese and Eliana live in Arizona and when they come we do Just Cuz.) We are so excited to earn more money to donate. It feels really good to give back to the community.
