the fab four

Good things typically come in threes, unless it's this fantastic Tuesday afternoon, when instead, they come in fours. Sending a big cyber high-five to these folks who pledged The Global Citizen Project this afternoon bringing the grand pledge amount to (a moment of silence, please) $3,361 -- or 17% of the $20,000 goal. Thank you Marc, Doug, Colleen and Damon!

I have 47 days to reach my goal, so if you're thinking about giving the The Global Citizen Project a little monetary love, please give what you can. (Big hugs and thanks in advance.) Pledges start at $1 and your credit card will not be charged unless the project is fully funded by its 4:15 p.m. February 22, 2010 deadline.

Okay, enough of the full court pledge press. Here are the four people I am thankful for this afternoon:

Marc Anteparra-Naujock, Creative Director for Quango in Portland, Oregon. You can follow him on Twitter here.

Doug Anweiler, Vice President, Corporate Marketing and Communications for Authentic Seacoast™ Properties in Chedabucto Bay, Nova Scotia. You can follow him on Twitter here.

Colleen Stephens, of Stan Stephens Glacier & Wildlife Cruises in Prince William Sound in Valdez, Alaska. You can follow her on Twitter here.

Damon Billian, of Damon's Diorama: Wildlife and Thailand Photoblog, amateur photographer, freelance dude, social media guru for @HotelTravel. You can follow him on Twitter here.
