DesignBuildBLUFF Membership Drive 2011

 

NEW DEVELOPMENT:

 

Thanks to your boundless generosity, we have reached our $30,000 goal and hence our $30,000 match- which so excited our matching donor that he just upped it an addtional $10,000!

 

So- if we can raise $10,000 in four days, DesignBuildBluff will recieve $40,000 for a grand total of $80,000!

 

Help us out by donating, or donating again, or by spreading the word to others (share our Facebook Link, Tweet about it, call your friends,write it in the sky..let your imagination run wild)

 

It's not much time, but with your help we can make this happen.

 

To up the ante and inspire even more generosity, Brdiget and Sean Brown are donating a 7 day stay on South Padre Island. Every person donating will be entered to win. Drawing held December 31st at 5:30 pm at District Gallery in Park City:open house from 4 to 6. Some restrictions apply. Need not be present to win
