Countdown: 9 hours remaining and $154 to reach goal

December 14, 2015

Thank you donors for your generous support of our crowdfunding project. We are in the final hours of our campaign and only need $154 to reach our goal. Every gift helps us get closer to our goal to support undergraduate student research and travel opportunities for our classmates. Please take a minute this afternoon to share our campaign one last time on your social media to encourage others to make a donation. 

Thank You!

We have reached 41% of our goal!

November 14, 2015

A big thank you to the parents, friends, business leaders, professors and more for your support thus far.. As of 11/14 we have raised $2,432 of our $6,000 goal. Since we will not meet our goal in time for the Oxford conference, we have chosen to extend our fundraising deadline until 12/15. Many expenses for our students are reimbursed in arrears so we hope you'll continue to spread the word or make additional contributions to our campaign. 

Project leader Chad Montgomery has organized an event at Craft and Growler on Thursday, December 3 from 5-8pm. They will donate $1 of every pint consumed at the bar during that time. Please join us there! Here is a link to the Facebook event:

As a donor, your endorsement of the Oxford Comets by sharing our campaign link on Facebook and Twitter will be greatly appreciated as we try to fulfill the remaining 59% of our goal. We've added our links and social mentions below, in hopes you'll share these with your network. We'll also be sure to post an update once our students have gone to Oxford. Please Help us keep things moving!
