Update: One Kid's Pizza Money

Date: 06/29/2009

Two weeks ago, we received a note from a student who had discovered the Virginia Public Access Project while working on a government class paper. Inside the envelope were two five-dollar bills.

                Brandon wrote:  “I’m glad that I can help (even though it’s a miniscule amount)."

Brandon is wrong.  Ten dollars is not inconsequential. If each of the 38,000 unique visitors of VPAP this month chipped in $10, VPAP could cover the entire year's operating budget.

Last week, we challenged our Facebook community to match Brandon's donation. So far, VPAP has received 18 responses from:
