The Fluvanna Historical Society's (FCHS) first ever Krispy Kreme #Doughnuts #Fundraiser was a sweet success! On December 17, 2021, FCHS brought 732 fresh made Krispy Kreme #donuts and a whole lot of joy to people throughout our community. Read below for more info.:
A Delicious Deal:
FCHS teamed-up with Krispy Kreme Doughnuts to help save our #historic Meeting House. Krispy Kreme donated the profits from each order placed to the Historical Society. Every purchase made over the course of the three week #fundraiser got us one step closer to replacing the Meeting House #roof. Plus, the donuts came right on time for the #holidays for people to share with their family members, friends, neighbors, classmates and co-workers. What a delicious deal!
Making Every Donut Count:
All in all, our first ever Krispy Kreme fundraiser was a #sweet success:
732 donuts purchased
61 dozen donuts in total
10 new FCHS members or Virtual Meeting House subscribers
Over $500 earned
Plus $100 in additional donations
Special Thanks:
Thanks to Pastor Ric Keefer for leading the way with this fundraiser. His love for this community is about as passionate as his love for donuts (and that's pretty great)! He along with Dawn Keefer woke-up at 4:30 AM to pick-up the order in Erie so we could enjoy fresh made donuts first thing in the morning! We even snapped the picture above of Pastor Ric as Fluvanna's "Santa Claus" and his turkey of an assistant, Atlas, as they passed out the donuts to our sweet donors.
Also, special thanks to Dawn for serving as the fundraiser's photographer. How could we mistake her tell-tale out-of-focus photographic technique as anyone else's (you know we love you!!!). Here's a few of the pictures:
