Fundraiser Updates
Luis Pedro Coelho
Two updates: We will have prizes & we have a menu.
*If you cannot make it to the party*, you can still donate online (suggested
donation is $7, not that much). We have direct experience with these
organisations and are confident that the money will be well spent. Go to
http://beiraproject.org and follow the Paypal link (it handles money for us,
so it's secure).
PRIZES
------
We will use the same system as last year: For every $5 above a $25 donation,
you get a raffle ticket. So, if you donate the suggested $35, you get two
tickets; if you donate $50, you get five!
1. Two $50 gift cards for `Salt of the Earth <http://www.saltpgh.com/>`__ (our
favourite restaurant in Pittsburgh)
3. One $25 gift card for `La Gourmandine
<http://www.lagourmandinebakery.com/>`__
4. Two gift cards from Big Burrito
6. Two copies of the English Translation of "A Roda" (Kufunana's show—which we
co-directed). We will sign them too.
8. Two `capulanas <http://beiraproject.org/blog/2010/June/photo-viii>`__
