Crunch Time…Light the Night Fund-Raising Campaign
September 12, 2007 |
It is hard to believe that the Light the Night Walk is only 3 1/2 weeks away! So far the COE team has 16 walkers. We are halfway to our goal of 35 walkers! Anyone is invited to join our team…students, faculty, staff or community members! Our fund-raising goal is $5,000.
The COE team is walking in honor of Kenny “Curls” Reeves who was a Health & PE major we lost to Leukemia this past summer.
Once we reach our team goal of 35 walkers who have collected at least $5.00 in online donations, there will be a drawing for a $50 gift card to Target! Please take the time to join our team and donate at least $5.00 towards this very worthy cause! Every little bit counts.
If you would rather not sign up as a member of our team (team members are NOT required to participate in the actual walk on October 5th)…PLEASE log on and make a small donation. Your donation can be confidential and you will receive a receipt for all donations made online.
