This afternoon and evening we started set up for our yard sale tomorrow. This yard sale is the second of our two major fundraisers, the first being a dinner we hosted at our school last week. There we served authentic Costa Rican food such as chicken and rice, black beans, and tres leches cake. People were so generous, and we made quite a bit of money!
We had so much stuff tonight. We originally planned to only use the back half of our cafeteria, but ended up having to use the front half as well, and the place was still overflowing! People from school and the mission team all brought stuff, and we had housewares, books, movies, clothes, and all sorts of odds and ends.
I personally will only be able to work part of the sale tomorrow, but I'm hoping that we will be able to make a lot of money. The money from these fundraisers doesn't help those of us going, rather, it helps fund our projects while down there and helps the people of Costa Rica.
Here's to early morning shopping!
