Drum Roll, Please......... The Totals

We were dispatched on 17,811 miles in May!  At a penny per mile, we will be bringing a check to Pluta for $178.11!     

This was on 14 loads, so the people that pledged $5 per load, will be sending their checks for $70!

We had many people pledge or send in a set amount, and when we visit Pluta on June 16th, we will find out the grand total.

We really, really, really appreciate all your support, and we know how much it will mean to the patients and their families at Pluta that will benefit from your generosity.

May 31 1991 miles

On Tuesday, May 31, we were dispatched from Joliet, IL to McCook, IL (30 miles) to pick up a load going back to Fontana, CA (1961 miles).  That was a good ending for the month of May and for our fundraiser.  Almost 18,000 miles!  I will add all the mileages and put in the official total in the next post.

May 27 1947 Miles

On Friday, May 27, we got a load out of Fontana, CA going to Joliet, IL (1947 miles).  That was a nice run for the holiday weekend.  We remember and salute all the veterans that made the ultimate sacrifice for us and our freedom. We hope you all had a good Memorial Day.

More Thank Yous!

I wanted to thank Ellen Buckholtz, Betty Dingman and Patricia Lookup for their generous donations!  We really appreciate them!

Thank you, Robin, for all your support in fighting cancer and for being so supportive us!

Thank you, Paula Chait, for all your Tech help on the fundraiser!

And last but not least, big thanks to our dispatcher, Rich Johnson, and load planner, Don Confer.  We wouldn't have all  these miles without you!
