We’re pretty new to fundraising events here at the Alliance so we weren’t sure what to expect when we announced a fundraiser event in December in Staunton for sustained resistance against the destructive and unneeded Atlantic Coast Pipeline.
We really shouldn’t have worried because you totally stepped up. Not only have we raised over $11,000 toward our $20,000 goal, but, more importantly, we got to reconnect with so many of you who have been fighting this pipeline along with us through these last nearly six years of both despairing and hopeful times.
We left the evening renewed and refreshed and ready to get back at it – doing everything we can to make sure the pipeline is stopped. And for that, thank you!
And congratulations to the winners of our prizes for the evening and thanks again to the night’s sponsors:
