Hey Ladies,
What if we do another toy drive with our leftover funds? Or maybe buy some food for a shelter for Thanksgiving or Christmas? Que creen?

I might be getting involved with a Headstart org (pre-k ed for low income fam) so if people are up for it we can do a toy drive w them. ...

Good question, I honestly have no idea.

Maybe we can make it into scholarship money.

There are existing scholarship organizations that we can donate to such as Scholarship America.

LoL I thought that too. Partnering up with a school or an org.  I want us to have some sort of say in who receives our money.  We should definitely try to do this beforethe school year is over.

Yea thought about it too, but are we going to gave time to do that? 

Thought it be easier to look into something like scholarship america or going through a smaller local org that already has a scholarship in place and we just add to the funding.

Honestly we can even put the money towards a students test prep course and have a short application distributed to high school diversity coordinators and pick someone. It's only $750.
