Alright, so last Saturday, GSE Team 2012 sold Mocktails at the South Asian Students dinner. We made almost $200, not a bad start for our first crack at the fundraising thing. This Saturday, we're starting our second round of fundraising. At 7:30pm tonight, our online-line silent auction will be up and running until midnight on Thursday, April 19th. We are starting out this event with a little kick-off reception (with FREE mocktails). We've been so fortunate to have seen so much support from the college and greater Wooster community. We have many really excellent donated items available in the auction. We're auctioning a massage, a basket from Spoon Market and Deli, SoMar Wine Cellars, and other local establishments in the Wooster community. We've also got some wonderful donations from professors and staff members who have offered to take students fishing, dine with them, wear matching t-shirts, etc.

If you are so inclined (and I highly recommend it) you should take 20 minutes to peruse the wonderful items we have to offer. I just want to thank everyone in advance for their support in advance!!! I will be updating you soon on the outcome of this fundraiser.
On another note, I don't want to make this blog just about fundraising, because 1) it's boring, and 2) it's annoying. Therefore, although I do not have time at the moment to go more in depth on the topics and projects that we are working on in class, I will quite soon. I'm sure that you all would find topics on livelihoods and their importance in the Indian context far more exciting and intellectually stimulating that never-ending updates on our fundraisers (we'll be running a booth at the Wooster Jam NEXT Saturday in case you're interested).
Bye for now!! I actually have many non-GSE related appointments and events to attend today (shocking I know).
