Challenge Countdown Pledge/match Thread

[joeylittle]

thanks, @Justmehere - I'm going to count you for today! 7 more people!
(your 10 just became 30 :))

deciding over the next 12 hours - 'I can donate today!' - and we will be that much closer to our goal!

Dear @joeylittle, I must admit, I'm very distressed right now... It's really difficult to explain. Although I donated a (small) amount on the 22th, I'd like so much to donate a bit more. But my credit card, as well as my bank account is empty. And I really mean empty. I'll receive the money from the social security on the 25th. And then I first have to do a payment on this card, what means, that I'm not able to donate before the 2nd or 3rd of March. :(

So here's my offer: If I'll give you my official recorded promise, to donate 50.-- USD on the 2nd or 3rd of March 2015, would my word be enough for you to match or double my soon-to-be donation?

 

[joeylittle]

Absolutely, @TreeHugger - I completely take you at your word :) Honestly, as long as you give it within the next 28 days, it's fine. I am counting you in!

And we just got @Samantha_38, so we only need four more people in the next 30 minutes!

And thank you to @mephoto for joining the gang!

 

[Melp283]

I'm in :)

 

[joeylittle]

Yay! How much for? @Melp283? (so I match and double correctly) - EDIT TO ADD, I see you - gotcha for $10.00

And with you, and @Jane1991, and @theotherside and @Ed Norton - WE MADE IT!!!!

 

[Nam]

:D I'm so happy!

 

[theotherside]

@joeylittle Count me in for 20.00
Can i pay it tomorrow? I need to get a gift card at the store.

 

[PlainJane]

Ok I did $10

And, with the challenge officially closed, here's the wrap up:

I'm glad we had a last rush of a few people, because somehow my counts were off - we made it to exactly 29 donators!

And the grand total we made today for MyPTSD.....$1,266.00

Which brings us to 80% of goal. :geek:
