Return the permission form tomorrow so that you can receive the Funbook and get started. Sign up as many sponsors as you can. Ask your friends, neighbors, parents, and relatives to sponsor you; but do not go door to door. The more sponsors you obtain, the more money you will raise to save children's lives. So - On Your Mark! Get Set! Math-a-thon!
