Going over the top in the next 75 days

We're happy to report we are about halfway there with our plaza funding efforts, and our major push is just coming up! Our primary advertising piece will be out shortly, and we will be marshaling all of you wonderful people who volunteered to help to get the word out to everybody in Seattle and beyond. We want to see a lot of bricks purchased in the next 75 days!
Some successes already! One woman just sent in $1,100--an incredibly generous gift. Another West Seattle woman is an example to us all, as well as to her children and grandchildren. She and her husband believe strongly in philanthropic giving, and in setting an example for their children and grandchildren. They have 16 children and grandchildren--and they bought a brick for each one in lieu of presents. that is giving from the heart!
Which brings me to the point--Buy a Brick for the holidays. Make it a gift to someone you love, or just buy it for yourself and know that you are benefiting all of us for generations to come. The holiday season is a particularly good time to remember how much we all have, and that so much of it comes from the freedoms we enjoy.
Businesses can buy bricks too, either for the business itself, or to honor employees. What a tribute that would be--a brick to commemorate an employee's remarkable accomplishments. A trophy or a pen set just sits around someone's office or home, but an inscribed brick would be there for the world to see for the lifetime of the honoree. Now that's a tribute!
For many reasons, an inscribed brick is a wonderful gift, and a gift well worth remembering during this holiday season. And remember, our campaign really is succeeding, and therefore coming to a close. We are committed to having this project completed by Summer of 2008. If you want to your unique gift to grace this plaza for generations to come, NOW is the time.
