A friend of mine is throwing a fundraiser and has pledge an addtional $5,000.00.

I have been receiving personal donations from the FNN Members and I just want to thank all of you that have made their donations to this worthy historical project. All donations are greatly appreciated. You can PM for more details.

That is great to hear Cory! I am glad that you got the grant!!

I just finalized my internship with Manzanar, and I am going!! I will be there from June 18th-Dec. 18th. I am definitely hopin to see you down there at some point and also to fish with you as well. :D

I was also just told by my professors that I can use this internship for college credit. Which means as a possible elective to finish my masters degree OR I can use this to write my masters thesis. I have to meet with the program coordinator at APU and finalize it! Hopefully it all works out.

But that is great for you. I look forward to seeing you at Manzanar and possibly seeing your film someday.
