Tomorrow we are meeting with the Georgia Transplant Foundation people. (I'm not exactly sure who they are)
But we are going to speak with them about our foundation and we are hoping to get their support.
We are also meeting afterwards to discuss everything and work on the logo some more.
So far the colors for the logo are black, white and a mulberry red. ( I talked them out of bright red, it seemed too Hot Topic)
I will show you some logo samples once we have finalized it a bit more.
I promise to share everything with you guys.
Don't forget the event this Friday. I think I am going to go by the dollar store and find us (whoever is coming) some festive things to wear :)
Also We are meeting tomorrow and we are going to start collecting money asap. If you have anything ready that's great, if not we are taking donations for every meeting. (I have to donate 25$ every meeting)
Please get involved with everything. We've been sort of a mess lately but Christine and I are getting fed up with that, so look out.
