Just got back from the first ever U of M - St. Thomas FOTO meeting! Among other things, we decided to focus on three main fundraising events for this spring: 1) a benefit concert to be held at the Varsity Theater in Dinkytown, 2) a Charity Denim event and 3) a restaurant night in which we partner with a local restaurant and receive a percent of all their sales during the day. We also discussed the possibility of hosting a medical conference at the University of Minnesota whose focus would be on providing surgical services in developing countries.
The concert will be our main focus this spring, so if you have any connections to famous artists please let us know! E-mail the group at umnfoto@hotmail.com.
Finally, we now have a bank account. This means that soon we can create a PayPal account, which will ultimately enable people to donate online through this site with a few easy clicks.
That's all for now. The posts will start coming with more frequency now that we're putting a lot of ideas into action.
Happy Trails!
Mike
