Another Tale of Bake Sale Success

Congratulations to all of the volunteers who helped with the bake sale last week!

This was the most successful March bake sale in 3 years.  Not only did we make a grand total of $1068.87, we also sold out of items by 2pm.  To give you an idea of how this money is used to support TPP programs, I came up with the following list.

$1,000 will purchase materials/\items for
450 blanket sleepers (OR) 1 Work Group Weekend, 250 blankets (OR) ~3 months of supplies for NICU Social Services-diapers, formula, clothing, etc (OR) 1 yr. worth of memory box supplies

We have found ways to be frugal and accomplish a lot with very little!  These sales are essential to this organization.  Without these sales and the support of our volunteers, we would not be able to support the families in the UIHC, NICU and PICU through our programs.  TPP is so greatful for your support!  Thank you to the following people for helping with this event (I apologize if we’ve left anyone out.  We tried REALLY hard to keep track of all of the volunteers.):

Bakers: Laurey Easland, Michele Hogue, Elizabeth Binder, Carla Lyons, Rita Schmidt, Debbie Cowherd, Deb Nollen-Richter, Colleen Bell, Libby Wilson, Hazel Kerr, Candy Dominy, Jenny Olson, Mary Anne Sheets, Randi Ryan, Audrey Knox, Jane Fredericks, Deb Gilpin, Chris Miller, Shirley Burger, Callie Byers, Nancy Fisher, Donna DeAmbrose, Mary Merchant, Cindy Dayton and Joni Lakin

Pricing Help: Mary Anne Sheets

Sale Workers: Carla Lyons, Mary Anne Sheets, Colleen Bell, Hazel Kerr, Audrey Knox, Ellen Leenheers, Caroline Smith, Nancy Fisher, Jane Fredericks, Linda Aker and volunteers from the University of Iowa Chapter of the National Society of Collegiate Scholars
