Hi All,

Deb has asked me to put onto Facebook a fundraising effort to try
to fundraise to purchase some bikes for our members who travel to Zambia
with the goal of leaving it for the Ag Center for their use when EWB
members aren't on site.  I have a updated the EWB-HSV FB status to reflect
this goal, if all of you on Facebook could share the status to spread the
word that would be great.

Note about Sharing Status:  If you just click share, you will only be
sharing the Zambikes website and none of the verbage of the status stating
our goals and how-to.  Please copy and paste the status onto your own
status when you share.

Also, it would be great if anyone knows how to track such donations if we
could keep the Facebook updated as to how much we are raising and how much
remaining we need to raise.  Does anyone have access to our EWB account
that could track this?  I also think it would be great if us members
started off by donated $10 (more or less depending on your own volition) to
get the ball rolling.  Please, as stated on the FB page, donate in the name
of Zambikes so that we can track these donations correctly.   If everyone
on this email listing donated $10, that's already one bike down!  And a
good start to encourage more donations.  A friend at work has already given
me $10, and so I'll be going onto our paypal site to donate $20 already :)

Feel free to email me with any comments/suggestions etc.

Thanks,
Amanda
