I finally found something new to talk about. I've been working with a friend to kick off a new fundraising campaign for the alumni association of our college. The goal is to seed an endowment fund that would snowball in value over the years so that we could turn a few hundred thousand into a few million. Of course, the trick has been figuring out how to get people to contribute, and how to get the University to work with us.

I made some good headway today, putting together a model for a day of fundraising. We've already reached out to the University and it looks like they will entertain our suggestion. It just seems to be a question of how much control they will leave us with. And of course if we can convince enough people to drop money in the hat.
