EBAY CHARITY IS BACK! You asked, and we
delivered! You can now donate to our ebay on-line and get $ for
Franklin! Here's a memo from the mom in charge, Cate Parsons.
Dear
FOF Families: This year, in conjunction with the silent auction, we are
having an eBay charity auction!
We are currently seeking
entertainment memorabilia and experience packages from any genre
including film, TV, sports, music/bands, and animation. In the past we
have successfully raised over $15,000 through our eBay charity auction.
We can do even better in 2010! Here is our school’s auction landing
page:
