Give Detroit Challenge Countdown - 10 days left!

[wladek.fuchs at volterra-detroit.org]

Dear Friend; 

We are approaching the finish line of the Give Detroit Challenge. 

Today we start the countdown: 10 DAYS LEFT TO GO. Thanks to so many of
you, we are doing extremely well already. As of this moment we have
$14,515 in our account, which is 20% more than our original goal! Wow! 

Even better, we are now NUMBER 4 on the leaderboard, just $1,900 behind
third place. IF WE FINISH THIRD, WE WILL RECEIVE $10,000 BONUS. Our
Artist in [Volterra] Residence program will be funded for at least three
years. I know that together we can move up! We are also apparently the
only foundation which represents Art in the Give Detroit Challenge. This
is a really big responsibility… J 

I am most grateful to all of you who already contributed so generously
to our cause. If you have not, here is a link, you too can help us with
a $10 donation:
 https://www.crowdrise.com/givedetroit-volterra-detroit [1] .
 Every little bit of help counts! There are so many of us, together we
can definitely make a difference! 

As always, I am extremely pleased to publish the list of our patrons.
This list includes names of friends from Poland, Sweden, Canada, Italy,
and pretty much every corner of United States. I am so grateful to you
all! Thank you from all my heart!
