HarlemLive
Raises Funds
in Mothers' Day Raffle
HarlemLive
conducted a small fundraiser to raise money for subway and taxi fares,
cassette tapes, batteries, pizza for our late nights, repairs to our
messenger bikes, press badges, stamps, software, etc.
This was our second attempt to drum up support. Our
first was a bake sale last November, spearheaded by staff member,
Malik
Wilson, pictured left.
Ms
Muhammad created a beautiful basket from
Donations by parents of Antigonee
Hawkins and Kerly
Suffren. The winning ticket went to Carmen
Echevarria, and was sold by Michael
Blanco.
The raffle brought in over $190 for HarlemLive.
We are now embarking on a larger quest. We
would like to send some of our students to Stockholm, Sweden, to accept
their finalist award from the Global
Bangemann Challenge.
HarlemLive is an all volunteer organization. We have
existed for nearly three years without funding. If anyone knows how
they can help .... please
contact us.
