Our final fundraiser

Dear Friends,

I met Kori for lunch today; we're trying to spend some of our Fridays together when we can. She continues to be amazed--and so appreciative--of all the funds we've raised, and all the support she's received from you.

Before Eddie's lung transplant, I had just kicked off a spring fundraiser via Tiny Tags for Eddie's Fund, and I've decided to resume the fundraiser now that the wake and funeral are behind us. In the last week, your donations have made it possible for the Fund to pay just over $2,000 in funeral costs and the family's monthly expenses, and there is still a bit over $6,000 in the Fund. In seven years, Eddie's Fund has never overflowed to such an extent; your generosity is amazing.

Still, I'm grateful for Tiny Tags for offering this fundraiser to us, and more than that, I want to do all I can in these last 6 months of the Fund (I will close the account on August 1 and give Kori all of the remaining funds at that time) to see Kori through this time of grief and help her get back on her feet. This will be the Fund's last fundraiser.

I love this fundraiser because it is a win-win: you receive a gorgeous gift, and Eddie's family receives the gift of support as they grieve and heal. 20% of every purchase you make will benefit Eddie's Fund; visit www.tinytags.com and enter "Eddie's Fund" as the charity code at checkout.

Please, and thank you.
