TGIF!! After yesterday's fantastic celebration of Seeedville's birthday, we're still rejuvenating. Hence, this week's post won't be as lengthy as others.
It's been two weeks since we last wrote. We didn't do an update for last week because not much had happened around the organization due to how terrible the weather was.
But as the saying goes, "after the storm, there's a calm." This past week has been a tremendous week for us. The organization is doing well. We just CELEBRATED our SIXTH year anniversary, which was on March 12th. We had a huge Open House Birthday Fundraiser Extravaganza. The turn out was tremendous. We reached 1/4 of our target goal. It was really great to see all people who have been supporting us throughout our six years of being in existence.
Though we may not have reached our desired goal in its entirety, the celebration in itself was a success.
Here are a few photos just in case you wanted to get a sense of what happened yesterday.
Now with that said, we still want to reach our target goal ($2,500) by the end of March, which is 18 days away. So, you can still donate to our cause to ensure that our windows get fixed so we can stop wasting so much energy. Again, please donate to help us reach our target by donating on our Go Fund Me page: www.GoFundMe.com/seeedopenhouse. Remember, no donation is too small.
As for our Job Readiness Program, now that our celebration is over, we will resume to recruiting and getting geared up for our first day of class which is scheduled for Monday, March 23rd. So far we have done some recruiting, had a few interests, and so we just hope that we can gain some more this upcoming week, and then see where things go from there.
If you're in the local Knoxville area, and know anyone who might be interested in a FREE job training program, please feel free to send them our way. We want to make sure we reach as many young people as we possibly can.
That's all for this week, folks. If you're still sad about missing our event, or want to recap with us about how fun yesterday was, please drop by our facebook page: facebook.com/seeedknox.
We wish you all a very productive remainder of your Friday afternoon, and a very relaxing weekend.
Cheers,
Staff +Seeed Knox
