Fundraising Updates

Congratulations to Team Eye and Ear!
Total Fundraising is now up to $123,732.54!!

Double Your Donations: Ask your donors if their company participates in a matching donation program.
- Most for-profit companies participate. If they do, have them fill out the appropriate form to have their donation matched.
- People who have already donated to sponsor you can still participate. Don’t worry if the check will not be cut until after the May 21st deadline for all donations to be in. As long as we receive verification from the company, we could the matching donation towards your total.
*note*: if your company has a matching donation program, it is not too late to count your $100 non-refundable deposit (which everyone donated to Mass. Eye and Ear) towards your company matching donation program.*
**I encourage you to use these company matching programs – as it is an easy way to double your donations**
Please let me know if you have any questions!

A Fundraising Idea – Mother’s Day: Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 11. A great gift idea! Ask people to donate to Mass. Eye and Ear as a gift to, or in memory of, their mothers.

reminder: All Fundraising Due by noon on Wednesday, May 21. However, I strongly encourage all team members to do most, if not all, of their fundraising before the marathon, as it will be much easier. Remember, all team members are responsible for at least $3,000 fundraising.
