After 11 3-Day Walks under my feet, you’d think I would be used to the generosity of my contributors.
Yet every year, I am humbled by their generous response.
May Showers
Typically, I start my fundraising in May for the San Diego 3-Day Walk in November. It allows me sufficient time to beg, plead, and grovel to raise the minimum required to participate.
This year I had about $400 already applied. It carried over from last year when I received checks after I met the minimum for the 2014 Walk.
So, I sent out my first fundraising email. Know what happened?
Drumroll please.
My contributors donated over $1,000 in May – so far.
Wow. Simply wow.
Update: Since sending my 1st request on May 1 for donations, my contributors donated $1,530!
Thank You 3-Day Contributors
