Aluminum clean up brings total to $645

Friends from my Varsity Team and Venturing Crew and I cleaned up some donated aluminum from Keith Anderson over the holiday break.  My grandma and grandpa Faber also donated a bunch of aluminum cans.  We were able to get almost $40 from the donated aluminum.  Thanks to Oakley, Easton, T, Skyler and Caleb for helping clean up the metal.  And thanks to my mom for the pizza!

We have raised over $600 for my project

With the help of Central Utah Door, we have raised over $600!  Thanks for your help!

Money from aluminum window frames

Thanks to the Mike Davis family for donating the scrap aluminum from your windows. Also, thanks to the Jason Pyne family for donating their old dishwasher. We have now earned $580 dollars towards my project!

Utah Lake Commission Features My Eagle Project

On Monday the Utah Lake Commission featured my Eagle project on their home page.  I was excited to see some interest in my project.  My mom helped me add a PayPal button to my blog.

After that, I was really excited for the donation from Darren Labrum who put the total raised to over $500.  Thanks Darren, we're over half-way there!

While I was looking at the Utah Lake home page I found this interesting video about Utah Lake.  I could not believe how many carp these guys can catch.  It was pretty cool.

Community Interest in the June sucker

My family met some nice people at the annual Utah Lake Festival this year.  We were attracted to their booth because their company has a really unique name, June Sucker Coffee.  Although I don't drink coffee (I'm sure they have really great hot cocoa), I share a common interest with the ladies at the coffee shop: increasing the awareness of the endangered June sucker.  Thanks, June Sucker Coffee, for your support of my Eagle Project!

Donated metal

On Saturday we picked up some sheet metal from a friend of our neighbor.  The metal was worth $64.25, bringing the total to be $370.97.  Getting closer!

Fund raising update

 I have earned $306 dollars so far but I still need to raise a lot more money!
