This Campbell couple got a wake-up call to help, and here's five reasons to act NOW.

We saw it on Patch that the is $50,000 short of the funds needed to complete phase one, and they need our help NOW.

This memorial, when complete, will be a beautiful and meaningful addition to our Campbell community, and deserves our support.

4. It's tax deductible - If you're like us, you start thinking about tax planning at the end of the year...yep, time's about right.

5. Be immortal - you can help build it and become a piece of it at the same time by purchasing a brick.

1. Purchase an engraved brick

A great chance to literally "make your mark" and be immortalized in our fair city. Order yours today here before they're gone!

What will WE do? Glad you asked. Here is our To-Do List:

D&D Action Item A: We've talked about it many times but somehow never got around to it (sound familiar?). We're immortalizing ourselves by ordering a brick...today.

D&D Action Item B: We're hosting a on Nov. 3, and will collect donations there.

And...we'll get off our butts and ask the Foundation how else Campbell Working Together can help.

The opportunity to make a lasting difference in our city doesn't come around all that often. Some things are just a no-brainer.
