Since Paul Calloway allowed me to start the Authentic Campaigner Preservation Project in 2004, the ACPP has raised over $12,000 for preservation efforts of the following organizations:
Central Virginia Battlefield Trust - $2502.00
Save the Franklin Battlefield - $1441.00
Museum of the Confederacy - $920.00
Beauvoir - $650.00
South Carolina Conferate Relic Room - $1358.00
Civil War Preservation Trust - $5078.96
Total - $12,054.96
Thanks to Paul and Matt for allowing me to try to raise money for preservation using this wonderful site. It has been an honor to serve these men in the moderator capacity for these years.
In 2008, I'm going to continue raising moneyfor the CWPT and the SCCRR's McRae Papers collection. While the number of donors and the amount collected has decreased every year since the project's inception, I'm optimistic that 2008 will be a good year and we will be able to raise a combined $3,000 for the CWPT and SCCRR. With the impeding release of portions of the McRae Papers here on the forum, isn't it worth it to you to send even $5 to have the first look at this collection?
My email has changed this year to dustyswb@verizon.net, so you can use Paypal or send a check made out to the CWPT or SCCRR directly to the organization or to me at:
Mike "Dusty" Chapman
5734 N. 15th Street
Arlington, VA 22205
As always, give if you can and I hope everyone has a safe and pleasant 2008. If you have any questions, please PM me here on the forum or send an email to dustyswb@verizon.net.
