Chapter 44 Cookbook

2010 OSC CookbookHot off the Press!  SEA Chapter 44 (Department of Education) teamed up with Berlin High School Graphics Arts students to publish a cookbook to support Operation Santa Claus. The cookbook includes a wide variety of recipes: Sour Cream Blueberry Muffins... Jambalaya... Harira... Irish Soda Bread... Mile High Mocha Alaska... everyone will be able to find at least one new "favorite recipe" in this book!

The cookbook will be sold throughout the coming year as a fundraiser for Operation Santa Claus, which celebrates its 50th Anniversary in 2010. The cookbook is available for $8/each; $15/two copies; or $20/three copies.  Checks should be made payable to SEA Chapter 44. Cookbooks can be purchased at the SEA Office, but please call 271-3411 x100 or email to make sure there are copies available. (The first print run is almost sold out -- but Chapter 44 is ordering more!)

Update - Goal has been reached ! 10 Children

I have set a goal to raise money to sponsor 10 children this year. To do that I have asked for donations from friends and family, I'm selling candy at my parents work and I'm asking for old phones and ink cartridges. Through the fundingfactory.com organization the SIEU - Operations Santa Claus is given money for each recycled item. 

My first kick-off event was at the Bow High School Open House on September 24th. There I raise approximately $190. I have also raised $370 from friends and family and an additional $115 in candy sales. I have over 13 phones and 18 cartridges which will bring me beyond my goal of 10 children....yeah.

Since there are so many kids in need I am going to keep going and see how much more I can raise so that the OSC can help as many kids as possible. It would be great to get the word out to other students throughout the state so that they knew that they too can help make a difference in the lives of children in NH.

My next few updates will let you know where I'm at in passing my goal
