I don’t usually have anything to do with the fundraisers for the kids’ schools because with seven kids in school times about 4,ooo fundraisers a year, well, it’s totally out of control.
But Number 4’s school is participating in Jump Rope For Heart to raise money for the American Heart Association, and Number 4 has been relentless about raising money for it.
So far she has collected $65 in cash completely on her own. She has basically assaulted my family and any and all adults who cross her path.
For the past week, she has bugged and nagged and begged and pleaded and negotiated to get an online link to her campaign on the blog. She asked me if she could write a post.
And since she’s been so passionate, I agreed.
So here it is, straight from Number 4 herself:
Hello I am Number Four. I am eight years old and I am doing a fundraiser at my school called Jump Rope for Heart! You can make online donations or donate in person if I see you. I am working very hard to get money. I asked all the relatives I could to help and donate they all pitched in. I also had to stay after at swim practice last Thursday. So my friend Karli and I made posters and we asked a lot of people in the stands and we made some money. In one hour I made $17! I have asked a lot of people but now I’m asking you! Please help donate to the American Heart Association and save lives!
Come on. How freaking cute is that?
She’s only got three days left to raise money. Her goal is to raise $150 online. If you could find it in your heart (pun intended) to donate, CLICK HERE!

How sweet! The school I teach at did that fund raiser last year. It was super fun to jump rope at lunch time on the last day, too!
