Hi Gordie:
Well we did it and Molly's grant was BY FAR the most successful grant in the short but not insubstantial history of 5 for Fairness. She took us to the next level!  I wanted to share what one of our new members wrote when she joined us here in the 5 for Fairness community today:
    "I learned of the organization through Breaking Ground, but I was also moved by the story about Molly Primrose Nye. What a remarkable, inspiring young woman. If your organization is supporting people like her & organizations like Breaking Ground, I want to help too." 

I can't think of a better way to end the grant cycle. Thank you again so much for your generous donation that got us going. I think you'll be happy to know, too, that we raised $7500 in this grant cycle and so have one in our next grant in our pocket and are halfway to the one after that!

Thanks again, Gordie!

Well, I'm certainly glad I am up to snuff in the friendship department! I get the concern about the competition too but, as you say, the sportswomanship is a great model for a diffferent kind of competition and participating gets them in front of literally hundreds of people who are interested in the issue. It's like a giant focus group to help them figure out how best to tell their stories and build support for their work.

Hi Gordie:
I just noticed that your story about Molly has been viewed 130 times so far.  Makes me so happy to think that people are learning about your amazing girl and her deeply loving family.

Hi Nye Family,

I’m the co-founder of Women LEAD, one of the teams competing for the grant this month. I’d love your support to empower more than 200 young women in Nepal to become leaders in their schools and communities! Your vote would help us build the capacity of future female leaders to tackle the root causes of poverty and discrimination. Our organization strongly believes that building young women's confidence and skills is key to empowerment. Please check out our page and website to see the work that we do and let us know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Hello Gordie, Kathleen, Molly, Lulu and Poppy!

So glad you are on 5for F with us.  It is a wonderful way to give to women and girls. 

We miss you in LA!

Hi Gordie:
I can't change your member name for you but you can - in about three seconds. Just click the Setttings link in the upper right hand corner of the page and on the next page, where it says Full Name and currently reads Gordie Nye, just put in the Nye Family.  I am thrilled at the idea of our next grant being in Molly's name. If you will send me a picture to put up and a paragraph or two about your sweet and stalwart girl, I will put them up when we get ready to start the next grant cycle.  My mother lives 45 minutes from Princeton and would kill us if we didn't stay with her but lets definitely have a meal over the Chase weekend!  Thanks again!  Anna
