Rahma Forest Garden Week 9.5 Update – 3 Days Left! – What a Jerk!
Hi, it’s Frank personally bringing you this update. We’ve only got 3 days left in our online campaign, and we’re hoping that we can still secure some additional funds even though we are past our goal. Can we make $2,500 by 11:59 pm on Friday? Can we think beyond The Rahma Clinic at 3100 South Salina St and envision a second forest garden, and a third, in other CNY neighborhoods? Your additional donations will enable us to do just that.
I’m also writing this personally bacause I want to share with you the honor of “Environmentalist of the Year” that was bestowed upon me by Syracuse University’s Jerk Magazine. Really now, I’m humbled, but I really just want to say what better project to make a donation to right now in Syracuse that affects our natural environment, our health environment, our green infrastructure environment, our food
environment, and our ecological wisdom quotient? Please let others know how worth-while their donation will be and that their money is in good hands :>)
You can check out the blurb they wrote up about me and how the Forest
Garden fit into their decision at http://www.jerkmagazine.net/uncategorized/jerk-awards-2012.html While there, check out all the other do-gooders here in Syracuse that deserve recognition as well.
Don’t forget about the $30 donation perk that we added just a few weeks ago for a complimentary registration to Jonathan Bates’ Food Forest workshop on June 24, as well as the other great perks we’re offering. And I look forward to seeing you again, or meeting you for the first time, this coming Saturday between 10 am – 1 pm.
Sincerely, Frank and the Rahma Forest Garden Team
