Update from Elevate WISE: We have had an incredible first year of Elevate WISE, and have met so many truly wonderful people via our Tours and Events. The last 'big' event of the year was a great, and we also managed to fit several smaller Tour-style events in the weekends before and after. Thus far, Elevate WISE has raised $42,800, including the events of the past few weeks. We have also received multi-year donations and pledges amounting to an additional $14,000 over coming years. How wonderful! A special thank you to all of you who have come to events, who have introduced us to people you know, and who have donated. A special thanks to all of you!
