NO! Not the corner!

That is where Doug is standing...with the other thermometer! :mouth:

 

Ping to the top....still waiting to hear from snaz on the canadian halves.

 

No changes since yesterday.....Still at $1500!!! Thats $300 more than last year so we are definitely ahead of plan but still a little short of our $2000 goal. I have had contact with 3 members who are mailing me funds this week and I have been in contact with a few other members who have pledged significant funds by the end of the fundraiser. Our goal is very reachable!

As a reminder>>>>>>>This is a fundraiser>>>>>> 100% of all funds collected will go toward the Shrinners Organization. These donations are tax deductible and at the end of the fundraiser, I will have the Shrinners Organization provide letters for your tax purposes. Money may be send to me via paypal or snail mail. Just pm me for my addy. If you send mail via paypal, please be sure to read my post on how to donate. There are specific instructions on how to donate without me having to pay the fee.

Also, my partner in crime Anthony (Stainless) is giving away prizes to the top contributors. This year, there are two groups>>>>> Those who donated less than $50 and those that donated greater than $50. Please note, these groups are subject to change at our discretion based on the number of contributors and the amount of money contributed. Anthony is also taking prize donations. Items such as PCGS graded Lincolns, 2009 mint sets, PCGS graded Morgans and IHCs are all part of the prizes. There are many many more too. Our goal is to get a prize in everyone's hand who donated! That is a hefty challenge so that is why we need your help. If you have a significant item to donate, please contact Stainless. He is the gate keeper for the prize closet. Thank you all again for your contributions and support.

Joe and Anthony!

 

Yep, I promise they are still there, I just haven't been home yet to see what I have available.
I promise.

 

Oh - no problem. I just like to ping this thread to the top. I like it to be one of the first threads people see when they come into this forum. And I appreciate it Shawn.

Up to $1700 now!!!!

 

Also, I wanted to address a particular topic gang......

No one has brought this up, but I wanted to make this very clear to everyone...... At no time will we announce when we receive anyone's donations nor will we announce how much is donated by that person. If you want to post that information, that is your prerogative. We may acknowledge your post by thanking you for your donation, but we will not acknowledge what that amount was. These are the same rules that we followed last year. We feel that this is an issue of privacy and don't want to violate anyone's confidentiality.

Thank you again for all your support because without all of you, this would not be happening!

 

Time for a bump $1700 with 2 weeks left can we break the goal of $2000 , congrats CoinTalkers especially Joe and Anthony . Joe you should have my donation in a day or two , sorry it's late .

For the catalog this week - it's cancelled. I will try to get one up next week, but I can't promise any more of these. It really depends on things.


I'll keep you guys updated on this.
