We have some more good news to share regarding our ongoing campaign. Two more brothers have increased their previous pledge commitments to "A Foundation for the Kingdom" capital campaign. Craig Ritter, '92 increased his previous pledge commitment another $333.00 simply because he wanted a round pledge number of $8,000! He then exclaimed, "sorry to be such a pain." I then replied, "If pledge increases are a pain, then you can be a pain any time. THANK YOU!!!"
Bo Police, '88 increased his pledge by an additional $1,000.00 to bring his total pledge commitment to $6,000! Thank you, Bo! This is more outstanding news.
Craig Ritter '92, $ 333.00
Bo Police '88, $1,000.00
We still need an additional $72,566.50 in additional pledges to safely secure our financial position with our planned renovation. Of course, this number is matched dollar for dollar by the Brockway, Meyer, Marsh trio. We need to continue to take advantage of this generous support, folks. If you haven't made a pledge commitment, please consider joining us now. This is our chance to essentially double our money! We need more brothers on board. As we move forward with our renovation plans, we want to invite everyone to be a part of the celebration. Don't leave your name off of this triumphant occasion.
