Reaching 100%

Neighbor to Neighbor Club "Thank you for allowing your volunteer crew to come to our home and work a wonderful makeover in our front and back yards.....we couldn't have asked for a greater bunch of people to do the admiral work that they very unselfishly performed at our residence with unmatched fervor......many kudos to all the crews involved in this community endeavor." - Chris, Barnum Resident   I received this note in the mail this week after a project we completed during an ECM Work Day earlier this month. During that Work Day, we also received a visit from Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, had a story about another project that day aired on the news that evening, as well as surpassed the mark of having 20,000 volunteers involved in Extreme Community Makeover since we began! And all those things happened in just one day.   This year has been filled with thousands of volunteers participating from Denver and across the country; residents who have received help at their own home coming out to volunteer and paying it forward to help a neighbor with a project at their home; and a new to ECM truck that makes me wonder how we ever got by this long without a truck. We're on track for 60 Work Days this year, along with completing around 250 projects. Thus, one of my goals this year is to encourage monthly donations to support all these projects. We are currently 23% of the way to reaching this goal of funding 250 projects. We need your help to partner with Extreme Community Makeover to reach 100%!   The Neighbor to Neighbor Club is a way to connect monthly donations to the projects ECM completes. Every $10 per month donated to ECM is the equivalent of supporting one project during the year, which seems like a pretty great investment since you could easily spend that same amount on one movie or a couple cups of coffee at Starbucks! If you are used to donating once or a couple times per year, you could take that donation amount, divide it by twelve, and give that donation on a monthly basis, which helps ECM tremendously.   To join the Neighbor to Neighbor Club, head to our website - http://www.extremecommunitymakeover.org/Donate/ NeighbortoNeighborClub.aspx   You can give via credit card or set up a recurring donation through your bank account. Let me know if you have any questions about getting started. Can we count on you to support Extreme Community Makeover on a monthly basis? Thank you for your partnership to impact Denver neighborhoods "one block at a time"!   Angela Bomgaars Extreme Community Makeover
