This is the story in words and pictures of how a handful of volunteers began collecting and selling donated estate sale items, learning as they went, and eventually raising enough money for an endowment to help fund their town's METCO activities year in and year out. The Lincoln METCO Coordinating Committee shows that anyone can raise money -- if they're just willing to do a little heavy lifting!
