Final AIDS Walk Plea - Now lets raise some duckets!

This Sunday we WALK!*

Yes . . . I said duckets AKA cashola, dinero, moola, benjamins . . . whatever you want to call it, the reason why we, the SF Presbyterians Fighting AIDS Team walks in the SF AIDS Walk every year is to help raise awareness about and funds  for AIDS research and the fight to find a cure.  So . . . if you are not able to walk, or even if you are, please consider sponsoring someone from the walk.

THREE WAYS YOU CAN GIVE

1) Sponsor yo' self:  No shame in giving money to your own efforts in this case.  Combine that with the offer below and wowie zowie, you are helping to raise some big dough!

2) Sponsor someone on the team:  Just click on the TEAM PAGE, find a walker and sponsor away.

3) Matching funds from MBCC:  MBCC budgeted some money to support our walkers.  There is about $350 that we would like to give in a matching plan sort of way.  Here is how you can turn that $350 into $1050!

• Walker must be a regular attendee of MBCC;
• Matching grants will be made $.50 on the dollar. A $50 donation would be matched with $25 up to $50 per donation.  So yes, if you get TWO donations of $100 you can get up to $50 in matching for each.
• Because there is no way to really know when each walker received their donation, in order to get this grant and to determine the order of distribution, you must post that your received a gift on this blog post.

Lastly . . . please come on out and joine the Crew before, during and after for fellowship.  This year we are in BOX #9  [MAP pdf] so the post-BBQ should be awesome.  IF you have more questions, please contact our organizer extrordinaire, Marc Jung and he can answer any and all SF AIDS WALK questions.

* Now when I say "we" I mean that in the royal sense because as it turns out, I am out traveling again in my role as Moderator.  I will miss the day very much, though not so much the 6:00am set up run ;-)

and my parental units each gave to me too! i think they either gave 25 each or 50 each. woot!

[Bruce Reyes-Chow]

And the total pot is now at $275. Woot woot

[Bruce Reyes-Chow]

I just got another one, matching is now down to $250. Come on all, funds are dwindling fast . . .

[Katina Miner]

Is it too late to get more matching donations? Joel and Jeannette donated $25 and a friend of mine gave what looks to be $100.

[Marc Jung]

My sponsor sheet shows $115, so I will claim the $50.

And Katina pulls away and Marc gets on the board.

That leaves . . . $125, which will go un-matched to . . . drum roll, Marc Jung, fearless coordinator. I know, not part of the rules but I figure folks would be cool wid dat!
