Another e-mail from CEO Marian Cummins at end of the day:

Barry,

It was fun to browse down through the responses. I really liked the quote from USCOIT2 : “Someone is going to get to work at Children, Inc, tomorrow and be like WTF happened last night.” Also, if you can get in touch with Jesse #9354788 who wrote that he realized he was only 5 minutes away from our office here in Richmond, we would love to have him stop in and meet the staff.


You are definitely going to top the 10k as we tallied $7,562.00 with the first 58 donations that we processed this morning. As I mentioned earlier, we have a lot more that will be processed tomorrow.

Thank you so much for all that you are doing and we truly appreciate being one of your favorite charities that you trust.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Marian

Barry, did you really expect BBV to live up to their word and donate $10.000?

If so, I am impressed!

You rule!

I'm not going to lie, I didn't. It seemed like there would be much talk of doing it, and then no action. Figured we would get a decent amount of small donations but nothing close to 10k. I think captainwacky deserves alot of credit for really getting the ball rolling, when nobody really knew if this would take off.

props captainwacky and the rest of 2+2 - this is a nice thing everyone has done.
