Tiny Sparrow Results

So sorry this is late in coming…because several of you have been curious…. but now that the accountants have finished the year end taxes we can officially publish the results of the Tiny Sparrow Fund Raiser we had in Dec.  involving the Chelsa Knot Dress and Claire Bear Hat.

All in all, 405 Chelsa Knot Dresses were sold and 157 Claire Bear Hats were sold.  AWESOME!    $30 from each dress and $10 from each hat we pledged to donate to Tiny Sparrow.  That brings the total donation to $13,720.  The check went out yesterday along with the following note:

“On behalf of the customers, Trunk Keepers, and employees of Matilda Jane LLC, we hereby present this check in the amount of $13,720.00 to the Tiny Sparrow Foundation as a result of our Chelsa Knot Dress and Claire Bear Hat promotion.  Half of the revenue generated from the sale of these two items are being donated to Tiny Sparrow.  Thank you for everything that you do.

Sincerely,

David and Denise DeMarchis

Owners of Matilda Jane Clothing”

So, Thank You to everyone who helped make this fundraiser so successful.

That is fantastic! Thank you for bring attention to this cause. My soon to be 10 year old felt so strongly about Tiny Sparrow Foundation that she has asked for money in the way of donations for her birthday rather then gifts. She hopes that she can help at least one family with the money she is trying raising. Thank you also for being well amazing awesome people of 435 and letting us be part of TSF fund raiser. XOXOXO

I have to say I am so glad I was able to purchase a hat and dress for my daughter. To have a donation be made to such a great organization with part of that purchase price makes it all that much more special. Thank you for all that you do!
