Pancake Breakfast Benefit Raffle!



Welcome to the first benefit raffle for the Johnson Family Fundraiser blog!

Since this is cyberspace, we are trying to creatively use the ideas of traditional benefit fundraisers but with an online twist!  (In addition to our take on the traditional benefits, we hope to add in a couple raffles that give a nod to a couple special communities that the Johnson Family are members of, including homeschoolers, firefighters, and the marines, with raffle items that ALL will enjoy!)

Our beginning raffle is a Pancake Benefit Breakfast!  There is a first prize raffle and a runner-up gift as well.  Both include gourmet pancake mix from The Great American Pancake Co! Every bag of pancake mix is handmade using only the finest, freshest ingredients so they are, “Perfect every time.”

Welcome

Welcome to the Johnson Family Fundraising website and blog!  Please visit the above pages to learn more about the blog, it's purpose, and more about the Johnson Family.

We hope to maintain an active fundraising blog through "pass the boot" social networking donation events, as well as monthly online raffles.  Besides prayers, donations, or raffle participation there is another way you can help!  PLEASE share our page with your friends on Facebook and Twitter!  A lot of change tossed in a jar adds up quickly, and a few dollars from many people helps pay crucial bills, buy groceries. or other essential items.

Also, a special welcome for visitors from the homeschooling, marine, and firefighter communities! 


Thank you for visiting this blog.  Our thanks to God  for your prayers and donations on behalf of the Johnson family.



James 1:17,27 (KJV)
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning...

Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this,  To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction...
