Fair Warning to Everyone on Donations

The amount of money we need to raise may not be much, but we have to raise it. There is no alternative. We hate fundraising, you hate fundraising, but this has to happen.

At this point we can raise everything we need in one day. That is not an exaggeration ... it’s a real opportunity.

We’re going to start to push hard now.
