All Done!

ALL DONE!!! A bit late but I was being crammed with a lot and had to do lots of paperwork for my project. But I'll fill you in with all that happened the past two weeks. Well first I bought supplies at Home Depot and Staples and planned to do the project during the break but too many people canceled on me so I moved it to the next week. After that, I took another visit to Home Depot to buy some other things I thought of. During the following week, I made sure to tell people that I changed the date to accommodate others schedule better, but I still got a lot of cancels. However, I decided that I was still going to do it and that Friday I went ahead and did it. I had five friends help me for a bit during school and afterward only two were able to stay longer, (both of which stayed for a while and helped a lot.) After that, I had my siblings and some church friends come and also help a lot. So after 11:40am - 9:00pm and 12:00am - 2:15pm the next day and coming in at a price tag of around $300 (100% funded by donations) my project was finally completed. 66 hours of working (all hours of volunteers combined) was really worth it, on Monday when I checked up on it I could see that the elementary really loved it. Thanks to all those that helped!

Almost done

A couple weeks ago I posted the list of supplies needed to complete my project and their prices. This week I've spent about 9 hours walking and driving around asking for donations towards my project. I estimated that in order to fully fund my project I would need $237, after I finished I had collected $275 and 4 Paint rollers, 6 trays, and 3 painters tarps. I also have been promised 2 buckets of paint, but haven't received them yet. As for next week, I had planned to proceed with my project the 7th and 8th but, due to rain I will need to push it till the week after. But I will still buy the supplies that I need so I can be ready to start when I can.
