[QUOTE="Deleted member 2897, post: 390364"] (Mods, feel free to put this on Recruiting page if it needs to be there instead or in addition)... (Also Mods, I don't know if we have the ability to headline/front page this on the site, but seems to me this might be a good thing to do)... Earlier this week I spoke with someone in the Development office who said that about $75,000 was raised in the initial push through year end, from about 125 different donors (I'm going from memory). I think this started on the Rivals board, so it sounds like everyone was pretty pleased, since that was such a small corner of the world relatively speaking. I know many people on this board have given too. This is my personal please to do a couple things. 1) Throw some money their way through the link below if you haven't yet. 2) Spread the message to several other people, and remind them to forward to several more themselves. (2) is in some ways even more important than (1). We all know how the numbers can work - its not necessarily about how much money you give, but that we get as many people giving something as possible. Here is the link again: [URL]http://www.ramblinwreck.com/sports/m-footbl/recruitingchallenge.html[/URL] I recommend putting together a short email with the link, to have your fellow Georgia Tech grads (or whoever you approach) read about the detail of what the money is going for. Then set up a short conversation and walk them through the details. Again, its important that they give some amount, but its equally as important to get them to approach several of their friends too. This can be kind of like LinkedIn with 6 degrees of separation. I'm sure the folks on this board are from around the country - if each of you approach several friends and they each approach several of their friends, it doesn't take very long for a couple thousand people to be made aware of this. YOU JUST HAVE TO DO THE WORK. Please make it a priority to DO THE WORK. Its not often we as fans have a chance to materially affect the program. This is one of those times. [/QUOTE]
