GLOBAL DONATION TALLY 2009

We are finally ready to send our donation - and got the financial person to transfer the money to PayPal so we could pay EN that way, but now I can't find the PayPal button! Am I blind or has it disappeared - in which case she will have to transfer the money back into our bank account and it will be another few days!! Arrgh - this has taken much too long already - and I still don't have one final bill, but I know the amount.

Anyway, if anyone knows where the PayPal button is that I'm missing, please let me know.

You should be able to send a direct Paypal payment to info@equalitynow.org once you log into your Paypal account.

Amanda Sullivan has confirmed with me this morning that they received the $2,834.23 US ($3,000 CDN) we sent them via PayPal yesterday. The $750 to our local charity, BC Women's has not yet been delivered. We are still arranging that, as we would like to get a picture of us delivering the cheque to them. So Vancouver's total is $3,562.18 US. (We rounded both donations up by a couple of dollars to make it a nice even number - although that doesn't really work with the exchange rate.

)

Just so the list of other charities is up to date, Adelaide browncoats donated approximately 100kg of rice, pasta, and tinned food to Anglicare SA as we have now for 3 years (previous years also included donations of scarves, gloves, beanies, blankets, and jumpers/jackets but as the weather had warmed by the time of our later than usual screening this year we opted to forgo it as it would just take up valuable space at Anglicare until next winter)

Can i ask for a followup on Launceston and Vegas whose events are long over (almost 4 months for both) and are still not showing as have even sent their proof of donation?

Jus so things are as transparent as everyone wanted with the issues last year?
