Here's a little update. I told you they were $4,000 away. What I didn't tell you was that the goal was
$10,000. In 5 and 1/2 months those resilient kids had collected just over half.
I received word this weekend that the kids are only a few hunded dollars away from their goal with three weeks to go.
Gery,
"Pennies Against Poverty" looks WONDERFUL on your blog!
I just received this in an email ... along with many thanks to you ... from my sister:
"Avery's new updated total as of today...$9700.00...yes that's correct...I said...$9700 with only $300 more to go! She did it in just 6 months!!!!!!! Avery will have her goal by June 27th before she leaves elementary!!!!!! YeeHaw!!!!!"
I'm passing those thanks on to you folks who were gracious enough to contribute. In less than two weeks you have helped them collect over a third of the current total.
Thank you so much for caring and sharing your belief in the kids and their dream. For those that might have gotten busy and forgotten, here's your chance to say, "I helped put them over the top!" "Pennies Against Poverty.
With Much Appreciation,
Gery DiMarco
