#Launchwescoe - the next steps

June 23, 2017

Dear friends:

We are excited to share with you that we've raised over $5,700 to invest in our hallway. We are so grateful for your support and cannot thank you enough for your contributions!

While we fell a bit short of our goal, we can use these funds to make an enormous impact for our students. We are now working with KU's interior design team and various furniture vendors to sketch out the options we have. In the coming weeks, we will continue to share our progress and keep you updated. We hope to unveil the hallway improvements at the beginning of the fall 2017 semester.

Once again, thank you for your support and your contributions!

 

Rock Chalk!

Three days left!

May 12, 2017

Dear Friends,

I'd like to take one more opportunity to thank all of you for your generous contributions to this project. We are thrilled to have raised over 30% and are so grateful for your support! Without you, none of this would become possible. Thank you for your donation, for sharing our vision, your trust, and your helping hand! 

Commencement weekend is here, and we are within the last three days of our campaign. Now is the time to make a difference - please help us share our message one last time. A quick email, Facebook message or phone call can make all the difference. And hopefully, at the end of the summer, our students will return to a more useful, more colorful, more welcoming Wescoe Hall.

Thank you, again, for all you have done. I cannot wait to share with you the improvements to our space this summer!

 

Thank you, and Rock Chalk!

THANK YOU!

 

I admit, this update comes a few days late- we filmed the video last week and had even more contributions come in since then. I am overwhelmed by the success of the campaign and would like to sincerely thank everyone who has contributed and shared the message. Within less than a week, we have  reached 20% of our goal, and we can already start exploring options to make Wescoe Hall a nicer, more appealing and more useful space. 

Let's not stop here. Please continue to share our campaign, and please consider supporting our cause.

 

Thank you, again, for your support! Rock Chalk!
