Withered_Kitten

Hello everybody! My name is Wither, and I am one part of the amazing duo Withered_Kitten!!!

I am going into 9th grade (10th grade math!), and am homeschooled. I have 3 younger brothers. And I love chocolate!!!

I am involved with GGC (Going into Rangers this year!), and have been since I was five years old. 

Pro tip: If you get asked to buy GG cookies, and you don't want to (which is crazy!), just say no thank you. We prefer that over 'Maybe later', 'On my way out' and sneaking out the other door, or just plain ignoring us! We understand that it can get annoying after a while, but we find it kind of boring too. The reason we do it is to raise funds to do fun things, like going to big camps! 
A minimum of 25% of our fundraising must be from Girl Guide cookies.
A case of cookies (12 boxes) costs $60 ($5/box). Out of this $60, the unit gets $11/case.
So say I wanted to raise $1000 dollars. I'd have to raise 25% of the money through cookie sales, which would be $250. 250/11= aprox. 23. So, I would have to sell about 23 cases of cookies. 23X12=276 boxes of cookies!!!
So if I wanted to raise $1000, I'd have to sell a MINIMUM of 276 boxes of cookies! And the camp I am applying for costs $2500! So that means I'd have to sell at LEAST 682 boxes of cookies! So now you can see why we're always out there trying to sell our cookies. The least you can do is be honest with us and say 'no thank you'.

In other news, Percy's Little Bird has been entered in the Watty's 2017!
Shortlist should be out around late August, so crossing my fingers!
