Tsunami fundraiser with my 6,7,8 class!
Our school decided when we returned to classes after the x-mass break to start a penny drive to raise money for the Red Cross for the Tsunami relief effort.
We only have a totally of 50 students in my school from K-8 so it’s not like we were going to raise thousands. I decided that my homeroom class could use an incentive. I told them that if they raised $50 I would shave my head. If they raised $100 I would shave my head and beard (which I’ve had for 14 years) and if they raised $300 I would shave my head, my beard and my eyebrows. They had 4 school weeks to reach their targets. Well, as of 2pm this after noon they had just over $100 and I lost my hair and beard! The newspaper was there to take pics. As soon as I get some of the before and after I’ll post them!
My next fundraiser will be in March for the SPCA. I’ll be doing a snake show at my school called “An evening with snakes.”. We’ll be charging admission and take Polaroids with some of my snakes. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the local SPCA.
Cheers,
Trevor

Good work Trevor!! Can't wait to see the new look....lol
Glad to see there are still people in this world with a heart!!
Keep up the great work with those kids and teaching them the proper way to go in life. Wish all children in school had role models such as yourself to look up to and to remember as someone who gave a damb

Be kind. I know I'm gooffy looking but remember it was for a good cause. My students raised the $100 so they earned seeing me look like a goof for a while.

Trevor

Haha looks good Trevor although you got off lightly. Your lucky the kids didn't make you get out a razor for that head. For the crome dome effect. Good job fundraising!

Trevor, at least the "manscaping" won't take forever in the morning. Good on 'ya. I know what you mean though, it's unfortunate we can't all have the sexy, sexy genetics that Favelle was gifted with... Grrrrrrr! LOL....
