together with the amazing donations + fierce contributing bids, we collectively raised $20,000 for Chris!!!!!
to the elite group of DONORS + BIDDERS, THANK YOU!!!
There were spectacular auction items + the bidding was fierce, some of you were true champions (you know who you are!) + you can still visit the site to see how everything went down!
Thank you all SO very much for your enthusiasm + heart, it was such a great success + I hope you all had as much fun as I did watching it all happen. It is truly amazing + Chris is beside himself with the outpouring of love + support to make a little of the impossible seem possible.
Please stay in touch with chris through this blog, where we will try + keep everyone up to date on where he is + what he's up to + any hopefully FUTURE EVENTS of all sizes, near + far! Your bids are what have made the next few months possible. Keep in touch!!
On behalf of chris + myself, I thank you again + again + again......
With overwhelming gratitude + love in my heart,
rita
