$5.70 raised..... another $294.30 to go

Hi my name is Ben and I am raising money towards helping communities around the world by partnering with Heifer International. Today (my first day) I managed to raise $5.70 towards my goal. It's a small sum of money but a good start. I'm planning on raising much more $294.70 to be exact. So I'm planning on printing out a pledge sheet ,and going door to door to collect pledges. I know, I know - a little eager, but it's better than putting together a fund raiser. I have lots to do until December 31st.
