Day 2 - shorter list, big donations

There's only one word to describe all of you: AMAZEBALLS. Today our list of pledges is shorter, but a number of people donated R1000 to Saartjie Baartman, so we still hit our target for the day. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Today's superstars:

  • Victoria Chamberlain
  • Caryn R
  • Rebecca Davis
  • Jane Notten
  • pi-squared
  • Floretta Boonzaaier
  • Laura Hartnady
  • Sanja Bornman
  • Penny Morrell
  • Alison Gillwald
  • Ashleigh Gillwald Morrell

Huge kudos, also, to Nancy Richards of SAFM, who is walking the Camino in aid of the Saartjie Baartman Centre (though we can't claim credit for that - it's her own initiative. We just happen to want to clap, loudly).

Miriam Mannak has been invaluable in getting word out to the media, and Tamarin Morrell and Michael Muller have been enormously energetic in getting donations out of their friends and family. Thank you.

And last but not least, the Cape Town Lesbians community, care of the always-awesome Lara Aucamp, have also promised us that they have the party of the year up their sleeve to raise funds, so watch this space for details. Because we all know the best cocktail is a pink cocktail...
