Unfortunately, we got close to, but did not get all of the formal volunteer pledge forms that we need to apply for our grant. We raised $2,000 in cash and have $3,000 in formal pledges. We still need at least $2,500 in formal pledges. We still plan to apply for the grant and to submit it by the first week of February.
Please, help us make Jackson Park Trail a reality. To pledge via e-mail, send me an e-mail with the following information. The format is really important.:
I [your name] pledge:
– Volunteer [number] hours on the Jackson Park Trail Design project. I plan to volunteer in the following ways: [examples: serving on the steering committee, consultant selection committee, community outreach, attending community meetings, other – be specific]. The value of my volunteer pledge is: [hours] * $15/hour = $[your hours * 15].
– $[dollar amount – note that you do not need to actually give the funds for a few months – until we get closer to contracting the grant] to the Jackson Park Trail Design project
