More Donations From Local Businesses- THANK YOU!!!!

Donations are really pouring in now!!! With only 4 days left until the BIG DAY things are really getting down to the wire. On Auctionzip.com alone there has been over 2,700 views!!!! That is amazing! We have donations coming in from everywhere & anyone you can think of...it really is incredible to see all the love & support friends, family, and a community have for one family...and to think most people who have donated have never even met Vaughn or his family. Just random, ordinary people who want to help out in their own little way. See what a difference people can make in somebody else's life just by donating money, or buying a $5 raffle ticket or baking a pie or donating something they had layIng around in their attic. I love it.

Here's a list of some more donations made by local businesses:

GIFT CERTIFICATE FROM SWEET CHEEK FACES FACE PAINTING- GOOD FOR 1 PARTY
$50 GC TO WARWICK NAILS
$50 GC TO SUN INDULGENCE
GC FOR 3 OIL CHANGES & TIRE ROTATION TO LEO KAYTES
GC FOR CHARLOTTES TEA ROOM

Big Thank You #3 And #4

A big Thank You goes out to Jen at Jen's Cookies Cakes and More in Warwick. She is graciously donating numerous amounts of goodies for the bake sale & baskets full of baked goods for the auction. Mmmmm....Chocolate Double Layer Cake...yes please!
Visit her website here: http://www.jenscookiescakes.com/

Jen sells her tasty treats to the local Warwick ShopRite. When she talked to managers there about the auction & asked if there was anything they could do to help, she asked if they would be willing to help cater some of the food that would be sold for lunch at the auction. They immediately offered up "as many sandwiches as you need" & cases of water.

How much do you just love local businesses stepping up to help out a family in need???

Makes you want to run right out and buy that delicious cake from Jen or make ShopRite your designated grocery store, doesn't it????

Thank you very much to Jen for her donations & for taking it upon herself to ask ShopRite if they would help and of course, thank you to Warwick ShopRite for their generous donation.

WOOT! WOOT! GUESS WHO WAS ON THE RADIO!!!

This morning my sister Robyn & her friend Denise from Guys Gals & Gadgets consignment store made guests appearances on 1340 AM Wall Radio. Both were there to talk about the upcoming events that are being held in honor of Vaughn. Denise first heard about the benefit auction we are holding through Robyn- it touched her heart so much that she decided to put together a 2 day tag sale, which also includes a bake sale & raffle tickets for gift certificates from local vendors. 100% of proceeds from the bake sale & 25% of proceeds from the tag sale will go directly to the Ziegler family. How incredibly thoughtful is that?

Information will also be posted on the radio stations website so check it out:

http://www.wallhasitall.com/

Robyn did an amazing job telling Vaughn's story & explaing how people get can involved. She should be very proud of all the hard work she is doing in getting the word out, getting donations (even taking time to go pick items up herself from people's homes or businesses), posting items to auctionzip.com, getting t-shirts made, selling raffle tickets, asking people to make baked goods, getting people to donate their time for the auction and advertising on Craigslist, The Warwick CommonPlace, The Warwick Advertiser, Auctionzip.com and even this blog.

On a little side note....I am 7 months pregnant with twins & live in CT- I was supposed to be doing all of this with Robyn but doctors orders prohibit me from traveling more than 20+ minutes away. Why am I telling you this? Because I am not able to make it to the auction or help out these upcoming weekends with set up, organizing donated items, baking, etc ...and so Robyn has really taken this whole endeavor on herself (with a huge help from my mom & a few other friends) and is determined to make this an amazing event. So I want to personally, formally & publicly say THANK YOU to Robyn for all her hard work. You are doing a great job!!! And you sounded awesome on the radio. You deserve a huge pat on the back!!!!!

-Amy
