Thank you to everyone who has donated thus far, in two months I have raised $5000. This is amazing! Thank you!
Many people have asked me how I’m doing and I’m doing pretty well and feel like I’m on track with fundraising and preparation. However, I still have a ways to go to be both fully funded and ready to leave on Jan 3rd 2015. Here’s what I still need:
Financially:
$7,500 in my account by Dec 19th so I can launch on Jan 3rd 2015
So I need another $2500 to come in the next 5 weeks or $500 a week in order to meet this deadline.
$11,000 in my account by April 1st
$16,270 (Full funding) in my account by July 1st
For those of you who are interested in a break down meeting these goals could look like this:
$7500 By Dec 19th:
2 – $500 one time gifts = $1000
4 – $250 one time gifts = $1000
5 – $100 one time gifts = $500
Totaling $2500 by Dec 19th
$11,000 By April 1st
10 people to give $120 a month for 3 months (Jan-March) or
20 people to give $60 a month for 3 months (Jan-March)
Totaling $3600 by April 1st
16,270 By July 1st
10 people to give $120 a month for 3 months (April-June) and
10 people to give $50 a month for 3 months (April-June)
Totaling $5100
Remember: I’m a math nerd and this is just an example of what reaching full funding could look like and any amount of monthly or one time gifts would be great.
Note: All donations are tax deductible.
Again thank you to all my supporters I would be unable to do this without you!!
