Dear friends,

Our Menhdi, Rap, Saxofone and Tabla led tabling was a huge success and we have collected 1269 dollars in donations today. This is almost twice the donations we collected at our last tabling the week before. The Henna/Menhdi girls topped the show in attracting people to our table so special thanks to Beth, Noshin, Samara, Muneera, Mashal, Farwa and Madiha for leading the pack. You girls were fantastic ! Also thanks to Raja on Tabla and James on Saxofone whose music was out of this world. Our rappers Ben, Haseeb and Riyle set it all up with their cool lyrics, you guys really drove the message home. Thanks to Noman, Chang, Danea and all the volunteers who were out there sweating in the heat. Thank you Faizan, President (PSA) for standing up with us. I dont have words to thank you all.

Long Live FTF !!

Hafeez.

We have donations from checks and Paypal coming in, too, so we would have an accurate figure by noon tomorrow. Right now it looks like our grand total of donations is going to be $5000 plus.

Kind Regards.

Hafeez.

Hafeez bhai. When is the next meeting? I have been thinking about another idea too. I need to discuss it with you too.

Sincerely,

Adeem

Congratulations everybody!

everyone just a reminder, sending emails to fightingtheflood.googlegroup is only for sending out reminders or requesting help, not discussing other things. All 50-60 people are being spammed by these conversations.

Thanks!

It was members at the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers general body meeting. I'm going to personally write them a thank you e-mail but it would be great to also thank them on our website.
