Update #15: 27, Up, Up and Awaaaaaay!

Posted on August 20, 2010

We're just $27 short of the big goal of breaking $1000. Cracking the $1k sound barrier would be nice way to start the weekend. Since this message is going out to people who've already given and pledged (thank you very much) I'm just asking a small favor. Send the link to 7 people. Send the link to your friends, family members, co-workers, clients, prison inmates (those with access to a credit card) -- just seven. If you want you can even tell 'em how cool you are because you support the arts -- AND HOW THEY CAN SUPPORT THE ARTS TOO!
