Today I\u2019m speaking in Irvine, CA at Mariners Church (no relation \ud83d\ude42 ) at their Lumen131 event<\/a>. Each of the four people speaking get 20 minutes to communicate\u00a0one big idea, and then we each have\u00a0a 40 minute Q&A to follow. I\u2019m really looking forward to this. Although, me and just 1 idea? I\u2019ll try\u2026<\/p>\n

As for our fundraising efforts. Due to your extreme generosity, we have raised just over $28,000 thus far.<\/p>\n

Here is the breakdown:<\/p>\n

Your individual donations: $20,000<\/p>\n

My speaking: $5,500<\/p>\n

Churches: $2,000<\/p>\n

My book: $500<\/p>\n

Also, we had a goal of 275 new people giving $15 per month. Thus far, we have had 36 new people sign up! If you\u2019re interested in signing up, please email me at andrew@themarinfoundation.org<\/a> so we can keep track of our running total. You can securely donate via Paypal on the right<\/strong>. As for automatic monthly giving, we were planning to have that capability as of Feb 1, but it has been pushed back a few weeks. We should have that up and running by mid Feb.<\/p>\n

I am continually humbled by all of your generosity. Thank you so much, and literally, this work and The Marin Foundation could not continue without you.<\/em><\/p>\n

I love you all dearly.<\/em><\/p>\n

Much love.<\/p>\n
