Our first fundraising activity has come and gone and was very successful. Members of Asperger Works and volunteers gathered at Barnes & Nobles in Salem, NH on Saturday, November 22 from 3:00 to 6:00 PM and again on Friday, November 28 from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM to wrap gifts for people who made purchases at the store.

We have a number of people to thank for our success. It was their dedication and good humor that allowed us to achieve our triumph. They are (in alphabetical order) Leia Aceveda, Lizzi Bowen, Emma Kaloostian, Julia King, Eva Rajczyk, Lisa Rajczyk, and Martha Rentas.

A special thank you also goes out to Mel Fuller of Barnes & Noble, who gave us great ideas about attracting donors, made a number of announcements about our organization over the PA system, and generally watched over us to ensure our success.

And last, but not least, we would like to thank all who donated. No amount of enthusiasm and positive attitude would have made our event worthwhile without you!
