As we get closer to the main event, we get closer to passing last year's total on the Michael Kane $10K Chamber Challenge (but we're not quite there yet). However, we took a HUGE step today with three more donations, including a very generous $1000 pledge from Sean Kearney.
We've still got a tad over 24 hours to go (at least as of the time I'm writing this) and we are ever-so-close to surpassing last year's total for the Challenge. There are still some of you who donated last year who've yet to contact us, and many of you who have been reading this posts over the last month or so but have yet to act.
You KNOW the folks at the Chamber do good work. You KNOW how much your support is needed. And this is one time when you KNOW that your support will definitely make a difference in someone's life when they come in for treatment at the Catalina Hyperbaric Chamber. The Chamber is staffed primarily by volunteers and now we're asking YOU to volunteer because you KNOW it's the right thing to do.
So . . . WHO'S NEXT???????
