To put that in context: In 2008-09, prior to the launch of the fundraiser, we had received just under two million dollars in donations and commitments from a mix of foundations, individual donors and business development revenues. (That includes the 08-09 1m from Sloan, which will arrive this month.) Since its launch, the fundraiser has brought in a little over four million dollars. This means we currently have received in 08-09 a total of 6.1 million dollars, which will fully cover our projected 08-09 costs.
Isn't there still another $1.9m needed to meet this year's planned budget?
(This means: Keep going! Full steam ahead! All the way to January 10th!)
