Update!

Wowza!

...In less than a month you all have already contributed $11,8745 to the Phifer-Houseman family. I'm so amazed! Thank you all for your generous contributions.

That still leaves us with just over $8,000 remaining before we reach our goal amount. We'd like to reach this goal by the end of June. If you are planning on giving to the Phifer-Housemans and are simply waiting to accumulate or redistribute funds as time allows, please contact the Phifer-Houseman's by May 15th to let them know the amount you plan to give (or ballpark amount) so they can plan accordingly. If you plan to give but are unsure of what amount you will give yet, your generosity is still welcomed!

So blessed to see community coming together in this way,

Paypal Update

One of our blog readers informed me of a nice change in PayPal policy. It is now FREE to make a payment through PayPal balance or direct bank transfer through PayPal. That is, you are charged $0 for sending the money and the Phifer-Housemans will be charged $0 for receiving it.

If you use PayPal to send money via debit or credit card, you will still be charged the usual 2.9% plus $0.30 per transaction as before. View PayPal's updated policy here:

Scroll to the bottom for info on sending and requesting money.

So feel free to send money via all the available means!

And I'm doing a little victory dance that so far you all have contributed over $3,000 to the Phifer-Houseman family! What a great start!
