Hi. Here is an e-mail address for Reminisce: http://www.reminisce.com/Default.asp?r_d=y You could probably buy the back issues from them. Hope you find what you are looking for.

Hi! There are two fund raisers that have worked for me in the past: 1) Put together a "holiday raffle basket". If you have a Marshall's or "TJ Maxx" in your area, you can find great ideas and inexpensive items for the raffle basket. We usually sell the tickets for about 2-3 weeks at the cost of 1 ticket for $1, 3 tickets for $2 and 10 tickets for $5. Residents, families, and staff love it. Depending on the size of the facility, you can make a good sum. 2) Facility Bingo -- every other Friday, we sell bingo cards to staff for $1 and use the overhead to call off numbers. It takes only about 15 minutes; but the staff love it and get involved. They win half of the money collected. Hope this helps.
