Fundraiser a Huge Success

What a great night. We had our first fundraiser at the Franke's home on Thursday night. We had beautiful weather, a great setting, and Tom and Marsha are wonderful hosts.

The generosity of our supporters is astounding. We exceeded our goals for dollars raised for the night and the attendance for the event surpassed our hopes and expectations. Excitement is really growing for our campaign and I truly appreciate the strong and deep support so many are showing.

With the success of this event, our total dollars raised for this campaign has now topped $53,000. This certainly isn't the end, but it is well ahead of where we hoped to be at this time.

I was asked by many supporters at this event how things were going. I had to respond that I just don't know what more we could ask for. Many commented on the hard work they're seeing our campaign doing. I'm grateful they are noticing the dedication and effort we are pouring into this campaign, but I'm even more thankful for the many volunteers and contributors who continue to help and support us.

We're running strong but this is a long race. With help and support like this, though, it will continue to be a great and successful experience. Together we can bring the Right Priorities to Lansing.
