Capital fund growing, growing!

We are now at 66% of our goal:  $52,500!  I have added a tab called "Donors and Sponsors" (above, right) to show a breakdown of our supporters.  This list includes some pending requests, pending grants and in-kind contributions that are NOT included in our capital goal or total.

Thank you to those who have given!  Please share this site with others who might want to follow our progress!

Capital fund at 1/2 way mark!

Our capital fund drive got its start in December with the $3500 donation from Farm Credit Services in  (see previous post).

Our need is to raise $75,000 more.
This will cover the materials to renovate the building--almost all labor will be provided by the Town of Jonesborough.

We kicked off our major donor campaign in early February, and received our first contribution Feb 9th.
In 10 days, we have received checks or pledges for $38,000 from 9 individuals!  Hooray!
THANK YOU to these wonderful folks who have not hesitated to lend us their support.
