Lib and I attended the True/false film festival this weekend in Columbia, Mo. .....Cold, Cold, Damp. I did manage to get a run of 3.7 miles around beautiful Stevens Park. That makes on 74.31 miles to go.
Several more persons committed to give $50 or $100 dollars. I know that some of you are "strapped" for cash these days. Could you spare $5????? $10???? It all really does add up. I remember that after Hurricane Mitch devastated Posoltega several years ago, we were able to raise about $30,000 in a short time. The average donation was just about $25. It really is about the number of donors more than the amount of the donation.
The reason that I am daring to ask for a healthy amount is because I've seen Habit for Humanity ask for a commitment of '$5,000 a year for five years', AND THEY GET IT.
My next post will give an up to date donation total and more information about Posoltega. Hopefully, once you know more about the lunch program, you will be as excited about it as I am.
PS.....Check out the True/False festival on the web. It is an amazing event. You don't have to go to the Cannes or Sundance to see good, new films.
