We Give Detroit! Today we celebrate - and keep going!

Dear Friend; 

Today was another big day for us in the Give Detroit Challenge. In fact,
and really thanks to you, every day is a great day! But today at around
9:00 pm we crossed over the $6,000 mark in donations. This is also a
half way point towards our original goal of the Challenge, and we did it
in much less than half the time. So, a great moment to share with you…
smile, and keep going.. :) 

It is also, coincidentally, another special moment. We now have exactly
99 patrons on the donor list. The next person to click the "Donate"
button on our Give Detroit Challenge page will be the big NUMBER 100. I
am really thrilled to see so many of you respond to our call… some UDM
SOA alumni from many years ago, faculty, members of the Italian American
Community, friends and family, and finally some recent graduates of the
UDM School of Architecture. It is a very diverse and wonderful group…
Thank you all so much… 

On the Give Detroit Challenge leaderboard we are balancing between #3
and #7 - right this moment we are #5, but the situation is changing by
the hour. It is you who can help us to get ahead and stay ahead. Every
little bit of support counts. So click on the link below now to make
your $10 contribution to the Volterra-Detroit Foundation through the
Give Detroit Challenge:

We are very grateful to all 99 of you who have contributed already to
the Volterra-Detroit Foundation! Thank you very, very much:
