This weekend!

Our big event on on Saturday!  Can't wait.  The guest list includes some of our very favorite people and we look forward to having a great time!


I know I have mentioned to people that there was going to be an in-store event at Alex and Ani in Newport for the bracelet launch on Sunday. Unfortunately, that won't be able to happen, but be sure to stop in to any of their stores or shop online and get your Shark Finn on 6/3! Can't believe the launch is almost here!

Getting close!

Our big event is now less than two weeks away!  If you haven't gotten your tickets yet but plan to attend, please purchase them ASAP!  We'll be shutting down online ticket sales on Friday, as we need to let the venue know how many people for dinner.  Don't get left out!!!  We want you to come have a great time with us!

We have a DJ and photographer!

wow...it's amazing how quickly the FB universe works. A BIG thanks to Sue Aurelio DeSimone for hooking us up with DJ Shawn Feeny and Jennifer Hartman Cohn for connecting us with photog Amy Ritz (check out her site!). We are SO thankful that both Amy and Shawn have agreed to donate their time for our 6/2 event!!!!! Thanks to everyone who was trying to help us out...we REALLY appreciate it!!!!!

June 2nd event...

We are hard at work on our June 2nd fundraiser.  We have been getting some great donations for our raffle.  If you, your company, or anyone else you know would like to contribute, please let us know!  You can email us at finnzfundz@gmail.com.

Right now, we have a couple of things we specifically need help with.  Does anyone know a DJ that would be willing to donate some time for our event?  We'd love to have music from 6-7:30 in the background as people are eating/buying raffle tickets.  We have a band playing from about 7:30 to 9:30, and would love to do a dance party after the band.  If I had to pick, I would most prefer someone to play music for us after the band...let me know if you know of anyone.

Also, does anyone know someone who would be willing to come to our event and take pictures for us?  Again, ideally looking for no cost.  I didn't get the pictures I wanted to last year because I was so busy the day of the event.

Let me know, and a BIG thanks to everyone who has donated thus far.  We couldn't do it without you!

EXCITING!!!

I had the pleasure of meeting with the Charity by Design team at Alex and Ani on Friday.  While I thought it was just going to be a check in meeting, we were able to sit and talk with the owner of the company, the fabulous Caroline, as well as the whole CBD team.  It was a great experience and we got to talk lots about Finn...always a good thing.  We also got to not only see the "Shark Finn" bracelet, but got to take some home.  The buzz on facebook is amazing...it's a Finnz Fundz Frenzy!

You can get your very own Shark Finn on June 3rd, at Alex and Ani stores and online at www.alexandani.com

Here's what they look like (we LOVE them...)

We are also hard at work on our upcoming event--just a short few weeks away on June 2nd!  Featuring music by Glenn Stewart and a fabulous raffle!  Prizes this year include a Keruig and a Kindle!  For more info and tickets, click here.

Please help us spread the word about the bracelet (20% of each sale comes back to Finnz Fundz!) and our event!  We want to blow the roof off the place!  WOOHOO!!!!!

TICKETS!

Tickets to our 2nd Annual Fundraiser are NOW on sale!  The only way to get tickets this year is online.  We maxed out our capacity last year, and we expect to do the same this year.  Don't miss out on a fun time for a great cause!  We'll be having a buffet dinner, awesome music by Glenn Stewart, and a raffle.  If you came to the event last year, or have ever seen how parrot heads do a raffle, you know this is not a raffle to miss!  There will be a cash bar.

This is an adults only event!  Time for the grown ups to have some fun!

All proceeds raised will help us help children and families fighting Cystic Fibrosis!
