One of the first questions in my mind (after "am I crazy?) was, would this actually work? Could I make enough money to pay for ingredients and have enough left over to donate? As I started to list out ingredients and costs, I got worried. The cost was climbing. But then I realized the secret is in adequately publicizing the pie-a-thon for sponsorships.
I've made a super-preliminary spreadsheet, with a lot of assumptions on it. The prices for items are from memory, or freshdirect prices. Obviously if I can find things on sale, or use my wholesale contacts, I could save even more money. But then, it also doesn't include things like a car rental, if I need that for deliveries and can't find one to borrow.
Still, this chart shows a very possible $3600 could be raised, or potentially a lot more. I'd feel very proud to write that check.

XO
okay,but don't buy from fresh direct if you want to save as much as possible here. let's get ahold of a vehicle and go to costco! (i've got a membership)
Oh no, I just used them to have some idea of what this would cost. I know I can get things for much cheaper than that. Costco is my friend.
