Eastie Challenge, Day 3: Yesterday, you gave...





Today's "Eastie Challenge" Campaign Update:

Alright, neighbors. We're announcing a mid-September "mini challenge" -- a "challenge within a challenge," if you will. Let's see if we can get to $3,500 by Sunday night. That's just $1,630 more than where we're at now. (50 people giving $33 each, 10 people giving $163 each, or two giving $815) Whatever the amount, please give, and ask people you know to give. $3,500 by end-of-day Sunday... go! (and don't forget about the Eastie Spirit Saturday visibility and workday today, 9-noon, starting at Sacred Heart Church)

Amount raised yesterday: $120
Total raised in campaign: $1,870
% of goal at day 3/10: 18.7%

Tip of the day: Did you know the #1 reason people donate money is because they're asked? Today, ask one person -- whether a neighbor here in Eastie or a family member over email -- to give a little now to keep our neighborhood livable later.

Donor quote of the day: "I contributed to No Eastie Casino because I firmly believe that placing a casino in the midst of an urban neighborhood is a negative for our quality of life. Gambling of this nature brings into a community activities every person attempts to keep out of their neighborhood, especially the crime factor." - Gail Miller

Thanks, Gail! And thank YOU for helping us raise $10,000 in 10 days
to keep Eastie great for families!
