We have a little over a month left before the Plunge on Saturday January 24, 2009! Overall as a team we have raised $530 which is on the way to our goal to make it to a Level 1 team by raising $2500. Join here.
It's really easy, seriously... Just email everyone. Literally go through and email anyone you can. Even your doctors, because the worst thing they can do is just hit delete when they get the email asking for a donation. There's a form already for you to just fill out on your Plunge website and it automatically emails it. Trust me, just for the hell of it I sent an email to my chiropractor figuring why not? And he gave me $50! So just send it out, have your parents forward it to their friends. Anything!
"Why should I do it?!" It's fun as a team and because each team member receives a free Plunge sweatshirt and complimentary lunch as soon as we get there. Plunge awards will be given out for teams at three fundraising levels:
* Level 1: Frigid: $2,500
* Level 2: Frozen: $5,000
* Level 3: Frostbite: $10,000
* A special award will be given the team raising the most money in each division.
* It would be amazing to do this, but if we raise $5,000 by January 12 we will receive…
* A $100 gift certificate for Plunge tailgate goodies
* A $75 gift certificate for your essential Plunge gear
* And (this is a biggie)…The opportunity to reserve a PARKING SPOT and TEAM “GATHERING SPACE” WITHIN SANDY POINT!*
**PLUS** Jeff is giving the top 2 fundraisers a free jersey!
Here are the standings so far:
Amanda Sumpter $220.00
