So we have been pondering a fundraiser idea. As we are coming into Convergence from the UK, we were thinking about offering 1 oz lots of british wool (shetland, blue leicester, suffolk maybe) to people who donate $20 or more to Weavolution at Convergence. We don't think it would be worth it to get a sales license, since most of what we offer is online, but thought this might be a good opportunity for fundraising. What do you all think.

Are you going to Convergence? Do you think British wool might entice folks to make a donation?

Thanks,

Erica

I cannot attend, but this would entice me.

The same product for the same price with a sign, "100% of your purchase will be donated to Weavolution" and  Weavolution's global mission statement.

If I could travel across the Atlantic Ocean to visit, the British Wool would be a good memory souvenir purchase.
