We hope all is well with you and wish you Happy New Year! As you know, we have done several public events during the past year and a half, and have managed to raise over $75,000. We need to raise another $225,000 in order to get this project done and we have been looking for organizations and individuals who are in the position to give substantial donations so we can reach our total goal of $300,000. The artist, Richard Hunt, (richardhunt.us) is still committed to the project and wed like to raise the needed funds for this project in 2014. Please consider making a tax deductible donation at idabwellsmonument.org. Every dollar counts. Also, please encourage others who have the same desire to see the contributions that Ida B. Wells made to this country reflected in a monument that will inspire and educate both local citizens as well as tourists.
