Pledge Drive Total
Posted by Bill All of the donations collected to benefit the trust fund set up for the children of Dan Eggers have been tallied, and the total amount we raised is ... $4,589.30 NOTE: This amount is adjusted from the totals provided below, subtracting PayPal surcharges from the gross donation total. I am deeply moved by and appreciative of the generosity exhibited by so many readers. With years of compound interest, 4.6 grand will help put a fine jumpstart on the trust fund set up for Dan's kids. Thank you all very much. Shout-outs to the blogs that helped promote the effort will also continue ... thank you everyone! For accounting transparency, below is an official log of all donations, with date, amount and initials. If you donated and can't find yourself on the list, please e-mail me or leave a comment. First the PayPal ...
And the individual checks ...

Posted by: dillene at July 9, 2004 11:52 AM I was thinking taht teh totals were weird, but think about it - good way to spot a contribution in an accounting list. Also, some people like to round off their accounts to whole numbers. Posted by: Bill from INDC Journal at July 9, 2004 12:04 PM I hate to sound a bit crass, Bill, but can I claim my donation as tax deductable? Posted by: JFH at July 9, 2004 12:17 PM I don't know ... would think. Save e-mail, paypal receipt, and a description of the trust fund can be found here: http://www.citadel97.com/frames.html Perhaps that that info would be sufficient to claim a deduction if you are audited, though I am no accountant. Posted by: Bill from INDC Journal at July 9, 2004 12:27 PM Thank you Bill for your hard work and for enabling us to send a virtual hug. I still tear up thinking of the family's loss. Posted by: Jane at July 9, 2004 12:30 PM Good work Bill. I'm sure the Eggers will appreciate your contributions to this fundraiser. Posted by: Rob at July 9, 2004 12:59 PM I would have given more, then I remembered that we had a local boy killed in Iraq a few months ago, so I'll find his benefit fund and make a small contribution there too. Posted by: Chris of Dangerous Logic at July 9, 2004 05:07 PM Great! It was most appreciated, Chris. Posted by: Bill from INDC at July 9, 2004 07:05 PM Bill and Friends: JJ, Billy and I are very moved by how all of you have opened your hearts and wallets to help our children. We couldn't have imagined you would raise so much money and we are sincerely thankful and very touched. May God bless all of you for your generosity. Sincerely, Posted by: Rebecca Eggers at July 12, 2004 03:04 PM |
