Subject: Quick Action to Support BTA: Your Small Gift Could Become a $1000
for the BTA
To: List Suppressed <Recipient>
Friends -
The heat is on! The BTA is a strong contender for "the most gifts given"
through the Willamette Week's online GiveGuide - and your participation can
help push the BTA into first place. It's quick and easy to turn a small
contribution into $1000!
The Give Guide (<http://www.wweek.com/giveguide>) seeks to put Portlanders
in touch with some of the area's most effective non-profits. When you give
to the BTA on the Give Guide website, your contribution supports the BTA's
advocacy efforts - and if the BTA gets the most individual contributions, we
could win a $1000 matching grant to support our ongoing work!
Give now - the opportunity to contribute ends 12/31/05! The size of your
donation doesn't matter, just the total number of donations: $5, $10, or $15
counts as much as a $500 donation for the matching prize: <

With those matching funds, the BTA could work even harder to make kids and
adults happier and healthier, decrease congestion and increase clean air,
and continue to make our region a national model for great biking.
This is also a great way for your friends and family members to support YOUR
commitment to better biking and the BTA - encourage your crew to make a
contribution at a level that's comfortable for them. Even a small
contribution might make a big difference for the BTA!
Many thanks in advance from your loyal BTA staff!
