<p><strong>Dear Friend;</strong></p>
<p><strong>We are doing great! We are #3 in the Give Detroit Challenge! Thank you!</strong></p>
<p>I was absolutely humbled by your response to my previous email. The donations were just pouring in, all day long. We sailed through the $7,000 threshold, and we are now over $7,300. All together we received donations from over 120 patrons.</p>
<p>Today is exactly <strong>the mid-point of the Give Detroit Challenge</strong>. Three weeks down, three more to go. This is a lot of work, but you are the source of my energy! We must stay where we are on the leaderboard to win the very important cash bonus, or move forward, and the race is tight…</p>
<p>This week too, if we receive more donations than other foundations (it is about the number of donations, and not the amount of money), <strong>we can win additional $500</strong>. So the value of every $10 contribution is very high! If you waited to show your support, do it now, click the link below to make your donation:<br /> <a href="https://www.crowdrise.com/givedetroit-volterra-detroit">https://www.crowdrise.com/givedetroit-volterra-detroit</a></p>
<p>I wanted to share with you also who was <strong>#100</strong>. And so it is my pleasure to introduce to you all Chris Allick, a very recent alumnus of the UDM School of Architecture, who graduated in 2013. For his work in Masters Studio he won the UDM SOA Outstanding Thesis Award and the AIA Michigan Student Design Award. He was in Volterra for the study abroad program in 2011. Currently he is working at the Integrated Design Solutions (IDS) in Troy, MI. And the best part: Chris got married only a few months ago, on August 1<sup>st</sup> this year. His wife’s name is Melissa. Congratulations Chris and Mellissa! And thank you! I am proud to have been part of your education!</p>
<p>Once again, great thanks to all of you who support us in the Give Detroit Challenge. This is a very special privilege of an old professor to have known almost all of you as students. And now to hear from you again… And thank you to all others, who I might have never met…</p>
