As Jordan Viator explains on the Connection Café blog: It’s no surprise that every other blog post you read these days talks about how to raise money, stretch funds and build supporters in the current economic climate. Give to the Scholarship Fund. Airfare can be one of the pricier parts of getting to the NTC.

With the $10,000 in matching funds from Convio (and the $395 we raised over our goal), we're going to be able to fund 58 scholarships to the 2009 NTC! Of course, that means Holly's going to embarrass herself in some fashion at the NTC (and I'm going to have to get a new haircut in May). Jordan Viator. Tim Briagh.

A few weeks ago we announced a joint effort between NTEN and Convio to raise scholarship funds to help people get to this year's NTC in the rough economy where travel budgets are being cut. After our initial announcement and Holly's birthday Facebook Cause push, almost 40 people had donated funds.

Every single person who donates to the scholarship fund is going to get one vote to decide my fate. Think of it as a double win for our community: Your donation sends more folks to the NTC and gives the gift of laughter to the entire community. Jordan Viator. Jordan Dossett. Amy Sample Ward.
