Alright, so here is my story...

I work at a university dorm and was having a lot of trouble raising any money. I decided to take those star and moon things that are displayed in stores and put them on the front desk of the dorm. I asked my manager if I could put some flyers up about it. He said of course no questions asked. When I was done, I asked him if he wouldn't mind setting the RA's up for a competition against each other to see which floor could raise the most money. He said he wasn't sure how it would work out, but that he would try.

 When I went into work last night I was overwhelmed. The RAs decided to do a "penny wars" fundraiser. Then, one of the RA's that I work with, is a rapper who's pretty big around town. He offered to set up a show for me and donate part of what he makes off that show to me and my event. He'd let me come and speak in between songs or something about relay. I was absolutely thrilled about this.

 ANYWAY, I want to set up a thank you for everyone who worked so hard and without hesitation to help me raise money. I want to get my supervisor something special for going to the trouble of asking them, and the RA who's performing something special for him and then something a bit smaller for everyone else. Any ideas? The winning floor gets a pizza party, so I don't really want to throw the RAs a pizza party. I was hoping for something a bit more innovative and thoughtgful.

 Thanks for all your help!

(I'm sure one way to thank him is by giving out free publicity!)
