And thank you to ALL of our more than 880 members - for giving us a voice. When I first got involved with the PBCers - there were a handful of us. But I need your help more than ever before - WE need your help more than ever. A million dollars might sound like a lot - but its only the beginning. And I want to acknowledge the efforts of our PBCers who brought us to this level of achievement, some of whom have make substantial personal gifts.
People give for lots of different reasons.
I often think of one of our PBCer donors who made a major gift to the fund. In the final analysis, we give because we believe in so doing, we can make a difference - even if its a small difference. And collectively, those small differences add up to a big difference. Be a part of something bigger. Make a commitment to do something, right now.
