The Pumpkin Bread Project

As part of a family tradition, I make chocolate chip pumpkin bread every year around the holidays. This year, I thought I’d leverage this delicious holiday treat and my company's donation matching program in order to raise money for a local San Francisco charity, Project Night Night.

I just sent the initial email to my company, and am so excited to see what happens! I immediately got an order for eight loaves ($40)! I'm going to have a busy December and am so excited for this fundraising project! I'll continue to post updates with my progress...hoping to get at least $100 (pre-matching) so I can donate a decent amount to Project Night Night.

Thank you to my co-workers for helping me raise money!

Here's the email/flyer I passed around my office (Note: Some of the formatting is lost):
