[PSAS] Crowdfunding update & request!

[Andrew Greenberg]

Hi everyone!

Happy Thanksgiving! As you recover from foodhead, here's a quick status
update and a request.

== Status update

Still waiting on the 2015 video. Since the 2014 video is still great,
we're just using that for now. We hope to switch later this weekend.
That said, we're getting reports that people like the page, so hooray
for Marie and Tyler for putting that together.

Most importantly: we haven't even begun to promote the crowdfunding, and
we're already at $2700! Yay! Extra rocket-fueled thanks to Josh, K,
Peter, and Ed.

== Request

Please bug all of your local peeps over the long weekend to donate! We
have a shorter link now:

http://www.portlandstate-foundation.org/psas2015

... and the more we have before we seriously start pushing this next
week to the public, the more likely it is that we'll make it.

More soon!

Andrew

[PSAS] Crowdfunding update!

[Andrew Greenberg]

Hi everyone!

Wow, we're actually being crowdfunded! This is actually amazing. Here's
a quick update.

So far, we've officially raised $4,150:

- About a dozen small donors
- 1x $500 donation (tech presentation)
- 1x $2500 donation (Josh Triplett FTW!)

We've also been promised:

- $500 from Intel (again, thank you Josh!)

Plus, last night Baker and I went to the IEEE Oregon Section meeting to
ask for $1,500. Baker rocked the 10 minute pitch, and they were really
impressed. They ended up giving us $2,000! Nice work, Baker!

So all in total, we are at $6,650 -- about 2/3 of the way.

Now is the time to start hitting up friends and family, coworkers and
bosses, aerospace nerds and other people that you know. There's only 15
days left!

Even better: do you have access to a mailing list that might be
interested in PSAS? Ask if it's OK to send out a crowdfunding email with
the link:

http://www.foundation.pdx.edu/crowdfunding/psas

Go team go!
