Raising the money

Attended a fundraising Iftar dinner the night before last in Homs hosted by the Governor and attended by around 200 business people and spouses. Massa and I made a presentation about Massar in general and the regional centre in Homs. Around $150,000 was pledged towards the development of the centre, which is great, even if it only takes us part of the way there. More such dinners are being planned, so it looks like a busy time.

Update 13 September: we have now received some $400,000 in pledges!
