48 hours left, and we reached our goal!

December 04, 2019

Hi all!

 

Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed to our fundraising campaign thus far. With your help, we reached our initial goal of $17,000!

 

We are also planning on fundraising in the spring semester since the total cost of the community center will likely be over $20,000. In the final 2 days of this fall fundraising campaign, we are hoping to reach our stretch goal of $20,000. Reaching this goal will allow us to expand our designs for the community center and move forward with confidence that we can fully fund this project!

 

Please consider donating or sharing this page to help us reach $20,000. There are only 48 hours left and $370 to go

 

Thank you so much for supporting this project.

 

Yours,

PUC India 2020

We have just reached $14,000 (which is 82% of our goal) and we are so excited! Thank you so much for your support. We have only 5 days left to reach our goal of $17,000 and we really need your help. 

 

If you haven't already made a tax-deductible donation, please donate today! Any donation makes a huge difference for Siripudi, regardless of the amount. Again, you can find more information about our project on our website or on our Facebook page. We are so close to reaching our goal and we can't thank you enough for it.

 

Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Hi everyone!

 

Thank you so much for all of your support, advice, and donations. We appreciate your support more than words can describe! With your help, we have raised over $5,610, which is 33% of our goal, in just a week.

 

In this past week, we've made lots of progress with our project, coming up with a couple of design options for the community center and fundraising at a few events around the Austin area. You can find out more about our progress on our website and on our Facebook page. We have posted a couple of upcoming fundraising events on our Facebook page, and we'd love if you could join us!

 

Thank you again for your continued support. We have just 3 short weeks to raise about $11,500. Please consider donating or sharing this link with your family and friends to spread the word! 

 

We are so grateful for you.
