To any and all Tufts alumni interested in supporting this year's service auction hosted by Asian American Alliance[AAA] (formerly Asian Community at Tufts[ACT]) and a global cause/issue by donating to match funds raised by the Service Auction held on February 28, 2008:

AAA has raised $1665 for the Refugee Immigrant Assistance Center [http://www.riac.us/] to support Burmese Refugees Settling in Worcester, MA. As a collective of alumni, we should be able to match and hopefully exceed this sum.

STEPS:

1)Write checks to: "Refugee and Immigrant Assistance Center" AND ALSO WRITE IN THE MEMO NOTE: "Tufts Alumni Contribution for Burmese Refugees" (This ensures the funds go to the Burmese refugee program.)

2) Mail checks to:
Refugee and Immigrant Assistance Center
31 Heath St
Jamaica Plain, MA 02130
(Please ensure your own return address information is correct, as RIAC will mail confirmation and tax information to you.)

3) Sign this pledge page! Also, if you don't mind telling us how much you donated, please send us an email so we can track our progress: jumbomatch@gmail.com

4) Spread the word and check back on the comments section of this page for our matched funds progress!
