Hump-Day Pledge Drive Update
Posted by Bill As of 1:05, the total in my PayPal account is (drumroll, please) ... $2,688.40 Only $460 yesterday, as the pace slows ... to ... a ... tri ... ckle. I want that PayPal account to show $3,000 by Friday, or INDC Journal will cease to exist as you know it and morph into "Bill's Neverending Telethon." $3,300 would be nice, as I can probably top it off to an even $4,000 via offline sources. I have another piece of original journalism on deck, a second interview with a member of the anti-war group, Military Families Speak Out, a very angry woman who tragically lost her son in February via an IED. If you like these original INDC photos, interviews, etc., reward my efforts by dropping a few dollars in the PayPal for a worthy cause, the trust fund to benefit the children of Capt. Dan Eggers, a green beret who was also killed by an IED in Afghanistan last month. No PayPal? Send a check made out to Rebecca Eggers to the following address: [Redacted at conclusion of pledge drive] Remember, all donations will be listed with initials, date and amount at the end of the week to ensure accounting transparency. Posted by Bill at June 30, 2004 01:03 PM | TrackBack (4) CommentsMy check is in the mail... I think it's very nice what you're doing. I knew Dan Eggers from high school. I encourage everyone to send in a couple bucks... no amount is too small. If we can present his widow with 3, 4, 5 grand, it would be a very kind gesture and great help to his family. More than the money, I'm certain it would mean a lot to know that total strangers from all over pitched in to help out. For all of you out there who ask "what can I do to make a difference?" -- THIS IS IT. Posted by: Marty Bielecki at June 30, 2004 03:06 PM |
