Why the Octopus?
Fundraising is both and art and a science, requiring a multitude of skills sets. Like an octopus, fundraisers must be intelligent, flexible, mission-driven, fun, and adept in many environments.
Fun facts about the octopus:

- Octopuses are among the special set of intelligent animals that use tools. In fact, they can open childproof pill bottles!
- They mimic their surroundings like rocks or plants to blend in.
- The common octopus has about 240 suckers on each limb and some can hold up to 35 lbs. In addition to strength, those suckers are extremely sensitive!
