Title: MR2ROC 2005 Fundraiser
Post by: markiii on July 27, 2005, 13:12
Ladies & Gentlemen,

As many of you who came to JAE this past weekend will have realised running a club can be an expensive business.

Around 12 months ago we had an MR2ROC fundraiser, which we are pleased to say was quite suuccessful.

Since then a combination of hosting expenses, events, and the purchase of certain assets required for teh club to function have drained teh kitty quite substantially.

As such we would like to kick off the the 2005 MR2ROC Fundraiser with immediate effect.

Our Target this year is to raise £600, and while you can donate at any time during teh year (using the donate button on the frontpage) our ambition is to reach this target by the end of September.

Our hope is that each and every one of you will donate in some form or other (though donation amounts will be kept confidential) to support the club that you all enjoy so much.

Donations can be made by paypal to  e donations@mr2roc.org e  or if you wish to use another method please pm markiii for details.

many thanks in advance.

The Committee.

Good man   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  

I've handed over my moolah as well. For all those who haven't donated, whatt are you waiting for?! Think about how much money this club has saved you over the last year: all the free tech help you've had, all the cash you've saved on GB's... DONATE NOW!!


I feel like I'm on some kind of telethon here.   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
