Sweets For Syria turned out to be a huge success!
We made pumpkin bread, whole wheat bread, cupcakes, chocolate chip cookies, and lemonade. Our best sellers were the cookies and lemonade. We hardly sold any cupcakes- I guess they are too messy for people.
Our stand raised $92.50. But, there were 8 families who did 6 stands and we raised a total of $1060.50! The girls loved doing the stand- Claire wanted to stay there all day. People were really generous, and I learned another lesson: I need to do a better job at stopping at lemonade stands. I always try to, but sometimes I am in a hurry, but now I'm going to make sure and always try to stop.
Anyway, it was lots of fun, and I hope the kids learned something. They seem very happy to be able to help the Syrian refugees!
