We made it past $50,000!!!

We start off with a Silver level ($500) contribution from longtime supporter Rebecca Jackrel. She's joined there by the collective effort of Team Sharkys (from Sharky's Eco Dive in La Verne).

We also got a lot of lift today from PCH Scuba. They made a corporate Silver level donation, plus Brett Bovard & Garrett Budwine each joined at the Poster level.

Now we're still hoping to fund two more of the BIBS masks which will give us 8 and then the mfg will throw in #9 & #10 at no extra charge. That's like getting a 20% discount. More importantly, it means we only need to fund TWO more masks to get them all.

So how about it???? Who will help us get there? Just go to our secure server, go to the Challenge section, enter $1,525, in a donation assignment write "BIBS Mask,” and we’re on our way!!!
