Fwd: Fw: Your Donations cross $9,000!

[Vasant Sai]

Folks - Maitri is raising funds and they have a big donation-matching thingie going on. Can you please look & pass the word (and chip in if you can)?

Mugdha - I still have your $100 check somewhere (yes! I am that delinquent.) If it is still valid, I will try giving it to Maitri. Else maybe you can send them a new one and I can tear up the check you sent me?

Sunil - I have the $200 you already sent me. Can you send them $200 directly and get it matched by Amazon? That allows Maitri to quadruple it to $800! I will return your $200 to you when we meet.

Thanks folks - this is all for a great cause!

And last ... I am still working on setting up a BOOMM+Maitri dinner. I will definitely line one up in the next couple of months. Hope you can make it!

Thanks!

Maitri Donation Matching Program    Dear Friends,   We are thrilled to report that in 17 days since the program was launched, we have received over $9,000 in donations! Just doubling this sum means over $18,000, and we are expecting company matches for several donations made!   If you have not donated as yet, please click Quadruple Your Donations  to donate now, OR mail your check mentioning "Quadruple your donations" to Maitri P.O. Box 697 Santa Clara, CA 95052.   If this is the first time you have heard of this program, this is how it works:    Our Challenge Grant Donors have set up a $25,000 dollar-for-dollar match grant that expires Oct 31. If you give $25, your company matches $25 thus making the donation $50. The challenge grant donors then match 100% making the total donation to Maitri $100.   BUT, if you cannot avail a company match, the donors will still double your contribution.   This is an exceptional opportunity in which no amount is too small. With your help and generosity we can win the Challenge Grant and double or quadruple our impact.   Best Regards,   Maitri       About Maitri: Maitri founded in 1991 is a 501(c) (3) tax exempt, non-profit, confidential agency dedicated to primarily helping South Asian families facing Domestic Violence, Cultural Alienation and Human Trafficking.     Visit: Maitri for details.  Like us on Facebook   Maitri Mass mail is supported by Grant No. 2012-UW-AX-0002 awarded by the Office on Violence Against Women, U.S. Department of Justice.
