$60 for <strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong> by<br />
selling mittens that her<br />

riders. In addition to the mitten sale, she also organized<br />
five days of fundraising for <strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong> at her parents’ Ben<br />
Franklin Park Superdome. They included an advertisement<br />
stating that “Every half hour of indoor golf bought gives one<br />
dollar to <strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong> <strong>International</strong>”, with information from the<br />
<strong>Just</strong><strong>World</strong> website explaining what the organization is,<br />

organization was great! At the end of the week, they raised<br />
