OTW: bellyrubz


Our October donations drive has ended, and all we can say is wow: thank you so much. Bellyrubz for everyone!

We raised a grand total of US$10,573, plus that matching challenge grant of US$5000, for a total drive income of US$15,573. Thanks to you, this is our most successful fund drive yet.

We can't thank you enough for your generosity and your support. Knowing that you're behind us gives us renewed energy to dive into the projects we're working on this year -- and inspires us to aim toward even bigger and better things in Year Three.

If you weren't able to donate this week, never fear. We make a special effort to raise funds twice a year, but you're welcome to donate at any time, whether we're having a formal donations / membership drive or not. And our fabulous membership premiums will continue to be available!

We also welcome contributions of time and energy -- that's what the OTW really runs on, and we really want your skills, talents, time, brainpower, and opinions! If you'd like to get involved with the OTW in the coming year, check out the Willing to Serve post and join our community of volunteers.

Thank you for your support and for being a part of the OTW!

Love,
The Development/Membership Committee
