Pie Someone for $2

For those of you who have been following me for the past couple months, you will know that I had recently participated in something called The 30-Hour Famine. The 30-Hour Famine is an international youth movement to fight hunger and poverty. As our church's last time to try and collect donations, we had two groups come up with their own fundraiser.

Group #1 - Pay for Hong to Grow His Beard.
     Basically, there are 4 different areas, mustache, chin, cheeks, and neck. For every dollar donated, Hong is required to grow his beard out in the selected region for one day. So far, they raised over $110, around $70 of which is dedicated to his mustache.

Group #2 - Pie Someone for $2
     This was my group. We decided that student/adults could pay $2 and pie one of the contestants. For 50 cents extra, they could add on a topping i.e. chocolate syrup, caramel, etc. We raised $102. The kids really enjoyed it, the contestants loved the whipped cream and syrups, and it was just an awesome way to raise some funds for a good cause and have some fun. Thank you to Seho Hong, Albert Kang, Pastor Albert Young, Pastor Martin "Goose" Chang, and David "Biggie" Kim.
