Fundraising Update #3
Fundraising Update #3
As of 3:28 pm on Wednesday: we’ve received $17,186 from 322 of you.

You’ve already helped enormously by contributing and spreading the word and we’ve got some promising funding leads as a result.
Keep those cards and letters coming in, or make your tax-deductible contribution here:
