Use of appeal letter to canvass for funds up till 3 Dec 06

Many thanks to all the runners who have been making their way down to HWA to return their pledge cards and money collected over the past few days. The staff at HWA are very touched and impressed by the enthusiasm and sincerity shown by so many of the runners who went out of their way to raise as much money as possible.

To date, more than 90% of runners have returned their pledge cards. The total amount raised so far, taking into account returns from both pledge cards and appeal letters, is over $32K! Well done everyone! There was even one runner who single-handedly raised more than $5K!! Notwithstanding this, every dollar counts, and regardless of the individual amount raised, you are all heroes!

Although the deadline for the return of pledge cards is still 24 Nov (Friday), fund raising through the use of appeal letters can continue right up to 3 Dec 06. For those who are still able to raise funds for HWA between 24 Nov and 3 Dec 06, you can use the appeal letter which is available at the HWA blog (click here for directions on how to obtain and use the appeal letter). The appeal letter allows donors to send cheques directly to HWA. Please note that the license allows fund raisers to continue canvassing for funds till 3 Dec 06.

Big thank you again to all the wonderful HWA runners and fund raisers!
