Amanda Raises $1,000 for Charity in Gingerbread House Competition

What a day!  I was so excited to participate in the Reliant Energy Gingerbread charity contest, but I did not make the best Gingerbread house!  I mean really it was a struggle house that needed a real decorator lol

Different members of the media were invited to participate in teams with their charity partner, and then the team with the best gingerbread house wins $5,000.  

I didn't win the big money, but I raised $1,000 for National Association of Black Journalists DFW chapter which provides students with college scholarships. The event took place at the A T & T performing arts center and kicked off the Holiday lights show downtown.  I was so glad to be a participant, and excited to invite Radio personality DeDe Mcguire from K104 to compete with me.  There's always next year!
