Hello team!

We have made it to the FINAL ROUND of CGI U 2014 Commitment Challenge bracket!!!

In short, this means that we are a stone's throw away from the $5000 grand prize and recognition on stage by President Clinton!

HOWEVER, we are not there yet and we are facing a very strong opponent and it will be a tough fight until the end.

Please help us in any way you can. We need this sent out on Facebook, Twitter, and whatever other social media you can think of. Ask your friends and family for personal donations. We need everything we can get.

If we win the grand prize, it is safe to speculate that our travel fees ($950.00) would be entirely covered for our trip to Cameroon this summer.

Here is the new bracket: http://www.crowdrise.com/CGIUCommitmentsChallenge

Fundraising ends at 4pm tomorrow.

Good luck, team!
Patrick

I just got a call confirming our place in the finals!

REMEMBER: We are NOT allowed to donate to our own team. They will disqualify us!!!!!!

Okay, that's all.

Thanks and happy fundraising!
Patrick

The link is the same; donations from team members to the team are not allowed. I will forward an email that I just received as an FYI.

Great work, Patrick and team!
Good luck in the last lap!

Are team/personal donations allowed this round??

Is it the same link?

Yes, absolutely! As long as the donations are not coming from members of the team itself.
