My development friends think I should join their team since I am so good at raising $$.  I recently sold a BUNCH of peanuts to raise money for programs that support the prevention of child abuse  (For the Exchange Clubs Family Center of Durham). This is a fun time for me: I ask for money to help support the prevention of child abuse (who can turn that down!) and then I mention that the Museum’s bears seem to LOVE peanuts. People hand me money for the peanuts and then hand me the peanuts to give to the bears. A WIN-WIN!

Thanks everyone for the support!
