Day 3

This morning I had to go to class so I can finish my masters degree, which my supervisor is more than willing to let me go...which is so awesome, since I only have to go till May 4!!!!  Yes, I will graduate from the University of Central Missouri with a Master of Science in Educational Technology and I'm doing that with a 4.0 GPA!!!!  I was just accepted into Phi Kappa Phi, an honor society, last week.  So it has been busy times for me!!!!

Today, I attended more meetings to find out what I need find funding for...which that list doesn't have an end, or at least not that I have found yet on Day #3. :)  As a rule, when an organization has a VISTA they must fund at least one more...I have been assigned the task to find $10,683 to support this one VISTA for our project or else all the VISTA's will be gone...gees no pressure there!!! :)  The good news is I have a lead on one foundation that might give us funding, it was too late in the day for me to call today, so that is for tomorrow.  Which I didn't realize how concerned my supervisor was until I told her about this one foundation!!  She has 20 years of grant writing experience and has no idea where to find funding for our VISTA, because she has searched and didn't find anything, so this could get very interesting!!!  She said "worst case we just have a few fundraisers."  We also did more planning for the Cinco de Mayo Festival that is just around the corner (Saturday May 5 for my English friends), this is going to be a big party!!
