Correction to the Update for The Second Annual DVD's For The Troops Campaign ~ 219 DVD's!!!

Okay folks here is the final numbers , straight from the post @ the CBS Jericho Boards:


*** DVDs For The Troops 2 Campaign UPDATE ***

Tuesday, June 17, 2008



Today is the release day of Jericho Season 2 DVDs and marks a very important milestone in the ongoing DVDs for the Troops drive. I say ongoing because even though this leg of the campaign drive is over, the effort to provide quality entertainment for the troops continues.



It is very difficult to convey the overwhelming humbleness for the show of support that everyone has shown in this effort. MM had a very emotional conversation today with Debbie from SIPH when she called to alert them of the shipment of DVDs heading their way. Debbie became so emotional; she found it difficult to express her appreciation and gratitude to all of you.



We are extremely proud to announce that through a coordinated effort between Amazon.com and SIPH, we were able to save $300 on the sales tax and shipping. This enabled us to purchase an additional 15 DVDs for the troops. Ok, are ya’ll ready for the totals?



111 DVDs from cash and gift certificates

108 DVDs from direct purchases

219 DVDs TOTAL





Debbie from SIPH has ensured us that she will forward any pictures and emails she receives back from the troops. We will post those as they become available.



MM and I are also currently working on preparing the messages that were included with the gift cards and DVD purchases. We are printing the messages on the back of the DVDs for the Troops Campaign graphic that RP designed. These messages will be included in the shipment of DVDs from SIPH to the deployed troops.



If anyone would like to send a message to the troops, whether you donated or not, please email me or MM. We will gladly include and send your message for SIPH to send to the troops.



We are also compiling all the names of everyone who donated and coordinating with J4K for the wonderful prize drawing. More information on that will follow in the coming days.



On behalf of everyone involved in making this effort a HUGE success – THANK YOU!!!
