NASFAA was number four in the America’s Giving Challenge as of 9:00 p.m. on Wednesday. We can do better than that!

An enormous, ear-to-ear grinning, proud-as-a-peacock THANK YOU to the 63 people who have donated so far! But 15,000 financial aid professionals receive Today’s News every day, so we're about 14,947 short…

As you read yesterday, we have until 3 p.m. EDT today (that’s noon to you West Coasters) to get the highest daily number of donations to win the $1,000 bonus. The organization with the highest number of donations overall before November 7 will win $50,000.

Here’s all you need to do to help NASFAA win:

1. Click on this link now or no later than 3:00 p.m. EDT today.
2. Scroll down and click on the “Donate” button near the bottom of the page.
3. Donate $10 or more to NASFAA’s Dallas Martin Endowment. Limit: one donation per day. Note: You do NOT have to join Facebook to participate.
4. Spread the word to all your friends and colleagues.

See you in the winner’s circle!
