The Big Give Christmas Challenge, for which the EES 2010 Amelia Edwards Projects have been selected, has now officially launched and will run for most of the coming week.
As you may know, the EES Amelia Edwards Projects Appeal this year will support fieldwork at two sites in the Egyptian Delta, Tell Mutubis and Tell Basta (for more details see: www.ees.ac.uk/research/ameliabedwards-projects.html). The Society has 128 years of experience in the Nile Delta exploring important sites and we need donations to fund the two teams and enable their work to take place in 2011.
The way the Christmas Challenge works is that donations made online over the next few days have a chance of being doubled by the sponsors of the Big Give so the more donations we receive, the greater our chances of being given match-funding. So far we have raised over £4,000 in online donations and we would like to thank those of you who have already made donations or have spread the word on our behalf.
You can support us by going to: http://www.thebiggive.org.uk/donate/ees. The fund will re-open every day at 10am this week, until the match-funding runs dry!
If you enter your details on the form, our Field Directors will be able to send you an update from the field, thanking you for your support and telling you how your money has made a difference on the ground.
Thank you for your support.
