Our First "Hi Larry" Letters!


This week we received our first "Hi Larry" letters! Today, young volunteer Kourtney Linn delivered her very own ShelterBox message to our office to be included in our Larry King mailing on July 6th! And yesterday, ShelterBox USA volunteer and Board President Ed Koplos brought us dozens of "Hi Larry" letters! Ed collected the letters at his Rotary Club meeting (thanks Rotary Club of Lakewood Ranch!). We are collecting the letters and sending them to Larry on July 6, 7, and 8. Remember--our goal is 10,000 letters. Have you started writing yours yet?

Other ShelterBox volunteers are working hard to make sure our campaign is a success: Connecticut volunteer Sue Klock is bringing 700 blank postcards to the Rotary International Convention in Birmingham, England, this weekend and encouraging our Rotarian supporters to write a note to Larry while visiting the ShelterBox booth. And Washington volunteer Connie Lewis is appealing to her local radio station to announce our campaign on the air. Our ShelterBox friends in Denmark, England, and Germany are helping too! Larry, ShelterBox is truly a global effort--won't you invite us onto your show?
