That's right the Keurig just comes after you get a yes months before. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters send and e-mail to let you know what you're getting.
The strange thing is i got a nice breakfast gift box and 2 mugs but that wasn't everything they said they would send. I'm not complaining
PearlParadise hasn't e-mailed me any shipping detail but I have gotten e-mails from them after i inquired about my status. The ways she spoke seems like I'll be getting something. Our event is April 2nd so I'm hoping for last minute things.
But we did great with donations and I thank this site for so many of the donations I received.
The coffee post and coffee arrived the week before the event-- we did not receive any notification it had been shipped-- it comes in a brown box--- through ups....
hope this helps-- ask the secretary's if anything arrived addressed to you
Re: Kuerig coffee brewer. To those of you who have received one, did you receive a notice when it actually was shipped to you? I received a "yes" response to my request weeks ago and it said it would actually be shipped out this week. But I have not heard anything. Have not received any notification that it was shipped. How did it work for you?
Re:Pear Paradise. I received an email today saying their donation is shipping with a UPS shipping confirmation. Yay!!!
Just as a side note, we had one business that agreed to send us a donation. They put in in writing and everything. But we never received it. When we contacted them to follow up, to let them know it never arrived, the business did not reply. Strange. So now the Kuerig coffee brewer is not here and I am concerned the same thing will happen.
Our event is drawing near and I want send a huge thanks to all this board for being so helpful.
Our event is April 2, an I fell like it's Xmas, got yes's from

Here is the msssage on the Pearl Paradise Giving page:
UPDATE: Due to an overwhelming response, we are unable to accept Giving Back donation applications until June 2011. Any applications received before March 17, 2011 will be considered. Please check this page for further updates.
This page is also good for Busch Gardens and Sesame Place. It sounds very straight forward and easy so I'm mailing my request today for our next event. Will post answer as soon as I get one!
