Ruby saw this photo mashup that Dave McClure did and created a Facebook Group to help me!
Love the update, "If Beth hasn't asked for money, you don't have a pulse."
Meanwhile, Sarah Dopp takes my tweets about sleep deprivation and junk food and turns them into a fundraising pitch
Need to finish sending out emails ...
@newmediajim also Tweeted it in response to a personal message I sent to some PR bloggers on Facebook. We are now neck-in-neck with the Fuel Efficient Stove Group.

I'm in! Thanks for all of your efforts to help Cambodian youth. My focus on raising funds and helping provide cultural (and historic) music education and experiences to youth sometimes gives me "blinders" to other causes, but we're close to meeting our 30,000 fundraising goal to help our musicians get to Scotland for the World Championships, and I know how it feels to be "this close" and afraid you'll end just short. Hopefully you get enough donors to make a significant impact for "your kids".
Great campaign. I hope I'm learning from you. We've gotten 2/3rds of the way to our goal, and have 4 months left.

Actually, I made the group and then went to Flickr looking for a photo. That one by Dave McClure was perfect!
Congrats again on your resounding victory! :-)
I think your fan club should make t-shirts or have a party or start a wiki. We'll come up with something.
