Tim DeMello Challenge
December 2007 Update

The DeMello Challenge is aimed at raising $250,000 on a dollar for dollar basis, so we can hit a mark of $300,000 and fund the club’s operating expenses on interest alone. Tim will match every dollar donated to the Men’s Rugby Endowment Fund up to $125,000 of his personal money. The Endowment fund now exceeds $200,000 and we need your help to reach this goal.

If you ever wanted to make a lasting donation to the club, now is the time. If you have donated in the past, please consider doing so again. Remember that you can pledge over multiple years to fulfill your contribution and that it is all tax deductible.

To join the effort, make your check payable to ‘Babson College’ and write ‘Men’s Rugby Endowment’ in the Memo section of your check. Mail your check to: Alumni Hall, Babson College, Babson Park, MA 02157

Should you have any questions about this effort, please contact Bob Dooley, Leadership Gifts Officer at Alumni Hall at 781-239-5234 or email him at rdooley@babson.edu . Please also feel free to contact me at kjrugger@comcast.net or Tim DeMello at tdemello@ziggs.com .

Thank you as always for your support of BURC! Together we can ensure the lasting legacy of Babson Rugby and enable others to enjoy the club the way we have over the years!
