The Grand Total for the Imbolc Charity was $391.00. We not only made our goal but surpassed it.
HUSSAH CedarLight!!!!!

Actually...$50 of that came from my employer. I just delivered the check.

I believe our auction and donations have met our goal of $300 by my last count (I will let Caryn confirm), so the Grove will also match that $300. That means we'll have $600 raised for the Lakota charity project! Congrats!

Which stores did you send these to (I actually know very little about pagan-ish stores in Baltimore). I want to call them up and see if they have any events going on in the next week or two that they can "mention" our charity drive during

When another email came around about it just before Yule, I asked if there was any way to equate the scarves that I made and donated to the gift-giving that we did- didn't think they would, but figured it couldn't hurt to ask.. I didn't get an answer until last week, and at that point I figured it was too late since it had already been done, but I jut recieved in my mailbox, a check for $50 to the grove.
Since the intended charity project has been completed, I think that this donation should go to the Wounded Knee Visitor's Center.
I'm intending to show my face at the grove this weekend, will bring it then. If for some reason I don't make it, I'll make sure that it gets to the grove by Imbolc.

Sorry this took longer than I expected - my computer and Gryff's don't talk to each other well, because mine is a dinosaur . . .the original I made got messed up and I had to do the whole thing over!
