Balloon Juice - VAAC Fundraising – Zoom Audio & Matching to $25,000!

VAAC is the amazing group we are raising funds for.

We had an absolutely terrific zoom with these guys on 5/24! You really have to watch it! Several people from VAAC participated in the zoom. So many interesting stories.

Zoom Audio was going to go here, but it looks like the new old site won’t do audio like the old one did. I’ll figure out another way to share the zoom tomorrow!

I would love to get to know them better. Smart. Interesting. Dedicated. Inspiring.

We have met $415 of Patrick’s $1,000 Angel Match, and we have another angel waiting in the wings.

Remember, we have an external match for the whole $25,000 we hope to raise. Between the Balloon Juice Angel and the external match, everything you donate toward this match – up to $50 – gets multiplied by 4.

$25 covers all the costs of one hour of community engagement, so a $25 donation covers half a day’s work!

What a great return on your investment!

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

These are not very smart people, and things got out of hand.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.
