I am so glad you asked! Even though we are winding down our pledge campaign, we have still not met our goal. The shortfall is still in the vicinity of 5%, and that makes a big difference in at least two very important areas: fair pay for our staff and facilities maintenance. I am sure you recall that we needed to cut staff salaries several time durning the past several years, cuts that might be at least partially restored, if we make our budget goal. And there are many parts of our beloved building with which we are limping along, but have not quite risen to the crisis level.
