Independence!
Posted by Jason on July 1, 2010
Yep, it’s here again: Independence Day Weekend!
Watching fireworks!
Eating hot dogs!
Thinking about the Declaration of Independence!
Voting for BOM to gain greater financial independence!
We still need your help! And, since you are a busy American celebrating your independence, it is fast and FREE!
We are doing pretty well in the Chase Community Giving contest on Facebook; we currently have over 560 votes! But sadly, we are slipping in the rankings. Only the top 200 groups will receive funding. We are still in line to receive $20,000, but we need a strong push of votes from you and your friends to help keep us there.
Please help us strengthen and deepen our work in Chicago’s schools by voting for us and by sending this post/link/or your own message to any of your friends on Facebook too.
THANK YOU! And remember - there IS a performance of “That’s Weird, Grandma” on Monday, July 5. Come see the show, have some laughs, and feel pride in your country,
pride in our students’ weapons for change,
and pride in knowing you are helping Barrel of Monkeys continue to save the world!
Thank you!
