Valour-IT Today

The best news of all is that Valour-IT has received over $30,000 in donations unaffiliated with a particular fundraising team! That means that our current total is around $85,000, not including donations mailed in.

But we have quite a ways to go, and so Soldiers' Angels is offering a beautiful donation incentive beginning today.

Due to constant bugs, the Valour-IT auction site had to be rebuilt. Participant accounts, bids, and items all transferred. If you activated your account for the old version, you should've received an automatic email telling you to click a link to activate in the new system (same name/password). If not, please email Holly (Soldiers' Angels webmistress).

And on the subject of auctions, there are some extraordinary items up for bid:

And there's a whole lot more. Check it out!

And please, keep spreading the word about Valour-IT to your friends and family. We have just a handful of days left!

And you don't have to get caught up in a bidding war for these. Just be one of the top two of the donors who drop their receipts on John. And, since the entire known world *doesn't* bother to stop here (or follow all of the links), your chances are purty durn good... --Bill

Thanks for the update. I was a little concerned, since it wouldn't take my old login and I never received the notice you mentioned. I was getting outbid notices, however, at a painful rate. I had to create a new login, but it took.
 
Glad things worked out, Thorsen. Sorry for the hassle. Perhaps the notification got caught in your Spam filter...
 
Was most assuredly no hassle. I mentioned it mostly in case it happened to others, there is a work around.
 
Auction idea for next fundraiser, John, if you haven't already done it. Does LTC (R) Donlon (MOH) still live in the Leavenworth area? Think he might be willing to donate an autograph copy of his book, Beyond Nam Dong, to the cause?
