The final tally has been in for our most recent Autism charity project, entitled Raising the HEAT for Autism. As many of you know, we embarked upon our fundraising by selling collectible hot sauces created and donated by CaJohns Fiery Foods, auctioning a ton of donated hot sauces and other spicy foods from various manufacturers and vendors, not to mention some cash donations as well.

Our project was quite a success compared to our first year’s project, and our efforts were rewarded by a nearly 500% improvement in how much money we raised compared to our inaugural project. Here’s how our donation was composed:

Sales of the “Epidemic Proportions” collectible hot sauce - $1958
eBay auctions of donated hot & spicy food products - $561.72
Cash donations through Firstgiving.com - $670.00

TOTAL FUNDS RAISED: $3189.72

If you consider that our donation last year was only $656, we are quite proud of our success and would like to thank each and every person who donated products or their time & effort into making this project quite a success.

We are already in the planning stages for our next project which we’ll be embarking upon sometime towards the end of this year, so stay tuned for that!!
