Greetings from the BTW Heritage Celebration Committee 2020!
Thank you so much for your support of the historic 2020 Virtual Heritage Celebration, “It’s A Love Thing”! Because you possess the indomitable Washingtonian spirit, you are doing your part which ensures our 45th annual reunion will carry on during this unprecedented time—a tradition unbroken and upheld because of abiding love.
We look forward to seeing you at our second virtual event: the Foundation Heritage and Scholarship Celebration and Fundraiser on Friday, July 31, 7:00pm EST! We will see and hear about “firsts” in our "love" journey with BTW as we honor Classes in Reunion (‘40, ‘45, ‘50, ‘55, ‘60, ’65, ‘70), laud BTW 2020 scholars, invoke BTW’s destiny during the State of the Foundation address, and grow our treasure through gift-giving...all of this will be followed by a live, interactive AfterGlow…a Zoom after party designed for informal, interactive fellowship with classmates, family and friends.
To attend, donation-registration is required; your gift of a $50 donation will serve in lieu of the annual ticket cost associated with this event which replaces the banquet.
Your donation is tax deductible and all proceeds will directly support Foundation programs and operations. We are offering two ways to donate-register: via (1) manual mail-in and (2) online. Further, if you register by Monday, July 27, via Manual/Class Rep or Electronic/online method (see both below), you will receive an additional invitation to join a Zoom Tutorial Session on Tuesday, July 28, 2020, at 6:30pm.
(1) MAIL-IN (MANUAL)
There are 2 easy steps to take for Manual Mail-In Donation-Registration:
1. By Wednesday, July 29, 2020, 6pm EST, register with your Class Representative by submitting your name, best phone number and an email address (it must be an email address that no one else is using; the email address can only be used once). Only one email address may be used per person for registration; the email address must be unique to your registration. Providing this information required by Zoom allows the Committee to manually register you with Zoom. Class Reps should email [email protected] and/or contact Heritage Celebration Chair Kimberly Greene at (703) 867-0356 with their Class Registration Rosters.
2. Mail your donation of $50 (or more) payable to BTWHS Foundation, P. O. Box 1641, Columbia SC 29202; place HC 2020 and an email address in the Memo Line. Ideally, your donation should reach the P. O. Box by Thursday, July 30, 2020. To facilitate/confirm receipt of check payment, please contact M. Lanelle Kohn '68 at (803) 315-0875.
