Memories of Mom is often used as a very successful fund raiser for schools looking for a new and exciting way to raise the funds needed to support school programs and activities. Students each submit a memory of their Mom, and Wealth of Memories formats and prints the book for students to sell to parents and others, with the school sharing in the profits. We have found the best way for schools to raise funds is for each school district to have a book printed for each school within the district; a younger quality of submissions for the younger schools, and a more mature quality of submissions at the high school level. This helps to raise sales and profits, as parents will want a book from each school they have a child enrolled in. Schools are welcome to group all the schools within their district into one fund raising book, but profits do tend to be lower. There is no cost to the schools to participate in the fund raiser. All costs are included in the price of the books being sold. Books usually sell at around $30, with the schools receiving 50% of the profits raised, about $10 per book sold. (Books can be Memories of Mom, Dad, Grandparents, etc.) Fundraisers can be completed within 30 days. |
| Memory... Mom was never a kid person. Until one day….I can still picture the scene. Mom, with her perfect hair and nice clothes, was rolling down the hill in my backyard with my children. I couldn't believe it! That was the day my kids realized their “Grammy Pie” was “cool”. She was always cheerful and fun, but this was different, it was special. Just the other day, I was talking to my son about Grammy Pie and something they had done together. He didn't remember it, but his reply was precious. He said, “That must have been before I knew Grammy Pie personally like I do now.” I thought that said it all right there. Now he feels he has a personal relationship with her as a person and not just the grandmother that lives in Massachusetts. -R. R. Christiana, PA |
| Memory... One of the things I remember most after all these years is my seventh or eighth birthday. We didn't have a lot, but Mom managed to make it so special for me. Mom made chicken for dinner, my favorite , and after the other girls were in bed for the night, Mom and I sat up and ate every last piece of meat off the bones, then broke the wishbone together, without waiting three days for it to dry! That was a wonderful time for me, having Mom all to myself, to go on and on about whatever was fascinating me at the time. When the chicken was just a delicious memory, Mom pulled a half gallon of coffee ice cream out of the freezer! Also my favorite! The two of us sat there, forever it seemed, and ate every bit of that, too. Right out of the box! I can’t remember specific presents I got while I was young, but that birthday, and everything about it, has stayed with me. -P. M. Parkesburg, PA |
