May 16 to 19

Time spent: 3 hours
Total time: 28 hours
Actions: I have contact with Allison H., The American Cancer Society Manager for this region, so I plan on having Relay for Life, a major fundraising event of ACS's, be my volunteer hours. I also have contact with the entertainment chair for the event, and I hear some people are doing face painting for free. Since this has to do with my paper's subject, I'll do both caricatures and face painting for cancer survivors and their friends/family at the event. To raise money beforehand, I started advertising my somewhat polished caricaturing skills with tweets, blogs, and statuses to raise money for the American Cancer Society.
Next action: Continue publicizing.
How am I doing?: Here's some examples of my advertising:
Want a cartoonified version of your beautiful face? If you donate, I can caricaturize you like I’ve caricaturized Makhijani, Martens, Panosian, etc.!  $7 b&w/color, +$3 for extra stuff. Lol this is seriously a great use of $ bc 100% of the proceeds go toward curing cancer. Taking requests until Saturday.email: christenw00t@gmail.comtwitter: @netsirhc 
I managed to get a lot of interested donors by doing this, students and nonstudents alike. Hopefully at Relay for Life, people will continue to want me to make more.
