Honestly, as a mom of a kid whose kid is in remission w/ cancer-don't sugar coat it w/ some cutsie name. Just use your charity's name. Is there a special child you are honoring? If so, possibly work that child's name into it. Cancer isn't cute. Just call it like it is... And I do think it's amazing what you and your community are doing!!!! Big hugs out to all of you! |

| KTF Not for Profit Community Yard Sale -- not too *cute* but it does tell what you are doing! I agree with Linnybop about not going to cutesie on it... At the bottom of your signs, put something like: "All proceeds will go to non-profit KTF - Kids Foundation for Kids with Cancer, 501(c)(3). Donations accepted at XXX-XXXX (phone number). Receipt available by request." People like to see the 501... part for tax write-off reasons but only if the foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization? Make sure that you have the name of *KTF* correct. It doesn't match with what you have put in your post -- not sure what the *T* stands for? You know what I mean?! I googled KTF and got "Kids Tennis Foundation"! ![]() That is very admirable that you all are doing this. If your community is doing it for a specific child, will you let the public know? I'd be very careful about putting the child's name on signs. Privacy issues.Just some ideas that popped into my head! I hope that your yard sale makes a lot of money for KTF. Yea!

How about something with the key words "One yard at a Time" For example: Please support our yard sale benefiting the Kids Foundation for Kids with Cancer. We're striving to make gains, one yard at a time. or We'll be measuring our success, one yard at a time. I'm not real good with football terms, but maybe you could make the posters look like a football field having a "goal" (goalpost) in mind for the amount of money that you hope to raise. |
