Treasure TSD Update 4/1/15
Hello-
As promised, here is an email with update and things that need to be done. I have opened this email to CC so that you can respond by “putting in” your name for which you can do. Please be mindful of others’ inboxes.
FOR ALL OF US TO DO:
We are collecting donations. We need to have some kind of compensation for the interpreters. It is a challenge getting volunteer interpreter for events. So I opened up a donation page at Indiegogo. We are asking for $3,500 (interpreters, refreshments, fees at Capitol). Help forward the link or ask your own organization to consider a donation.
PROMOTE THE EVENTS! FLYERS ARE ATTACHED. PLEASE FORWARD TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE! (See below)

Entertainment: Do we know anyone who may be willing to do something fun/special?
** It is very important that the TSD staff and students attend this event as it is about them and for them. Clarify with the staff that they can attend on their own time and they can sign anything as long as it is as a citizen, not employee**
And that’s about it folks.. Sort of 🙂 next email!
Thank you. We are ALMOST there! Let’s not slow down before we know it, its June and TSD WILL HAVE all the FUNDS they asked for.
OPTIMISM! 🙂
