Third Decade Phase 2
Discussion centered around the closing out of the $500K fund. Discussed ways to do that:
-Talk to families at 3/24 cocktail hour
-Getting as close to the $500K as possible prior to the 3/24 event so as to entice donors to help us close out the fund
- Class to Class competitions (alums)
- Calling our larger vendors for donations. (i.e. Health Insurance Broker, Greenwood, TD Bank, Auditors)
- At 3/24 event, have a matching donor either for the last amounts or to match donations received/pledged that night
