We have great news! Our transportation fundraising campaign has completed and it was a success. Because of the generosity of so many island organizations and caring individuals on Martha’s Vineyard and around the country, we raised $40,000 and can now buy a van to get students to programs around the island.
We raised $5,540 through the Moby (Bad Word) t-shirt fundraiser alone! Thank you to Traeger DiPietro for organizing this inspirational campaign. Over 200 shirts and hoodies sold. You’ll certainly soon be seeing the t-shirts around the island! And if you missed the opportunity to buy one, we’ll have more for sale this summer.
Thank you to our island banks. Martha’s Vineyard Savings Bank and Cape Cod Five both generously donated to our campaign. Thank you to St. Andrews Episcopal Church for an amazing donation.
Because of these donations in the month of March, we were able to match a $12,500 donation from a private donor. Thank you!
Finally, our gratitude goes out to the Permanent Endowment of Martha’s Vineyard for getting us started with a $10,000 seed grant in December 2019.
We are truly blessed with our community on Martha’s Vineyard.
