Chamber Day
Contributor
We made it past $20,000!!! So it really is a GOOD Friday.
We are led this time by our good friends from the Antelope Valley Desert Divers who not only came up with a $1,500 donation to put them at the Gold level, but they've also filled their #1 table at Chamber Eve and are now working on #2. It's clubs like this who band together to raise funds for our Chamber that help make this event so successful.
We also have a $600 (Silver) donation from the Eco Dive Center Instructors, as well as a $500 donation (also Silver) from John Turney. They too recognize the importance of keeping our Chamber around for the day that we hope never comes but when it does (a dive emergency) you'll feel this was money well-spent.
Have we heard from you yet? No matter what you can afford, every dollar pledged to the Challenge goes directly to our Chamber and keeps it strong. Best of all, because there are no costs associated with the Challenge (like t-shirts or dinners) not only is every dollar available to help divers, but these Challenge donations are fully 100% tax-deductible.
So who's willing to keep us going upward? Who's next????
