Two days to go, and we need just $19,500 more!

2 days leftWith just two days to go to meet our million-dollar goal to take back the Greensward, we are closing in on the finish line! Here’s where we stand:

  • You’ve brought in $30,500 this week alone, which was matched at $61,000 by the Hyde Foundation!
  • That means we only have $19,500 left to go. The Foundation will match all those gifts 2:1, and that will get us to the goal.
  • We’re closing in on 900 donors from 38 states. We’re missing Alaska, Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, and Wyoming. If you have friends there, now’s the time to tell them about your favorite park!
  • There are two drop-in fundraising events this weekend: a VECA fundraiser on the V&E Greenline this evening, and tomorrow night’s concert at Canvas. Here are the details.

We could not be more grateful to all of you who have donated, hosted fundraisers, and reached out to friends around the country. We’re going to make our goal because of you!
