the last email you'll receive from me this year

We're only a few hours away from officially closing the books on 2019, but before you head out to celebrate New Year's Eve, I have one final request. Earlier today Tom told me we're only $1,038 away from hitting our $20,000 end-of-year fundraising goal. John, we're too close to miss this important…
