Apples for Mooseheart

What is Apples for Mooseheart?• Began by collecting $ to actually buy apples and

ship them to Mooseheart• Shipping costs became too great, so now, we

raise the money, send it back to Mooseheart and Washington apples are bought there, saving a pile of $$$$$.

• There is a traveling plaque that is presented to the Lodge & Chapter that raises the most money per member for the program

• This is our program. No one else does it!

The Numbers

• Last year, we raised $1701, this year we raised $1745.50. That’s a lot of apples!

• Donated by 8 of 32 chapters and 13 of 34 lodges (21 of 66 FRUs – 38%)

• We had 45 FRUs that chose not to participate this year

The Goals• Raise more money each year than the year

before – we did that.• Increase participation in the program to 100% -

we have a long way to go!• Let’s try to achieve 100% participation this year!• You will be surprised how little it takes to bring

home the plaque each year. Stay tuned to the banquet or breakfast for this year’s winners!

• Let’s shoot for $2000 total donated by all 66 of our fraternal units. That’s only $31 per unit!

How?

• Go home to your lodges and do 1 bottle draw and send the money in to Ray.

• Promote the program at lodge meetings• Attend district meetings and let the other

lodges know that you are raising money for this program. Challenge others!
