Some people say that money is the root of all evil! Some people say that money makes the world go round. Some people say that money will make you do things that you would never do. I say that not all money is good money. Well when it comes to the Hidden Gems your money is going to a good cause and it is being used in a appropriate manner. I helped collect the money at the door for the showcases and I also help collect money for registration fees as well. It is said and it is hard to get people to donate to anything, because there are so many people who do not do what they say they are going to do when it comes to money. With all of these scams it is hard to find out what organizations to donate or to support. You do not have to worry about that when it comes to the Hidden Gems. I am so glad that they have so many people behind them supporting them especially the sponsors. For a fundraising idea we sold some Rooster cards that would give people 10% off of their meals and the cards were only $10.00 and they were good for a year. We did this to help those who were unable to pay their registration fees. I must admit these cards were a little hard to sell but we got it done. I advised my mentor that next time we should go to GFS and get the candy bars and sell them. Everyone loves chocolate and they would be much easier to sell.
