Okay... we fibbed (read till the end).

We estimated that we received over $13,000 for Rake A Difference.

By the time we raked our last lawns, we thought that was it, and we were ready to celebrate.

However, our community had other plans.

Thanks to some very generous contributions, our Rake A Difference fundraiser raised over $40,000.

We're stunned. And, those weren't the only surprising numbers.

We also had 550 volunteers raking lawns, donating supplies, and making the work more worthwhile. To all of our donors and volunteers, thank you. Your contributions will help the Southeastern Idaho community in ways you'd never expect 💛
