2008 Jeans & Jewels Raises over $460,000 for NAM!

All,


I want to send a Texas size thank you to Nita Bedford & Susan Diehl, this years J&J Co-chairs and to all involved for all the hard work and support of this years J&J! Thanks to those of you who purchased tables, brought new donors, donated auction items, sold raffle tickets and purchased auction items at the event itself. The money raised through table sales and raffle tickets comes in during June - September when donations are typically down and helps us feed the kids that are not getting free breakfast and lunch when school is out for the summer.



Through your generous support, NAM raised $460,000 (gross) as of Monday which is phenomenal since we budgeted $464K (gross). Expenses are budgeted at 100K and we should come in under so all in all, given these uncertain times, we are extremely please with the results. Once again, thank you to those who supported us this year with the event. You make the difference!


A heartfelt thanks,
Carole Little
