UPDATE - Latest info is posted on this spreadsheet https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc...3hRVTl3Z3UxTlptMmlGR3c&hl=en&authkey=COnBur8F

UPDATE - Discounted tickets from C4L are sold out. We will need to regroup. Krippy says it well below:

At this point, I think it would be best to shift our focus to folks that have already purchased their tickets but need help with transportation or lodging. From there we focus on students that have yet to purchase tickets, since they are only $35. Essentially, we want to maintain a low dollars/votes ratio, while factoring in money already donated to incomplete ChipIns.

This is the primary list for active chip-ins. We have knocked out seven so far, today. This is a cleaned up continuation of this thread where you can read some success stories.

Listings are links to introduction threads, and will change.

Thanks for your interest and support. This is r3VOLution and we need All Hands On Deck!

Paul Stanton needs $130
Ian needs $250

Can we get an update from Invisible? Weren't there 30-40 students just needing transportation from York to CPAC in that group? That would come out to $100 a person. Good deal to get as many as possible there.
I can't donate anymore until pay check on Friday (your Thursday). You guys are doing a great job! Maybe a few of us can post on our blogs on C4L and see if it gets picked up for the front page.

invisible really needs help ,i do not get paid till feb 9th:( he is in process of getting josh to update his op etc. If someone could purchase their tickets before prices go up that would help!

$3720.53 is all needed to fund all these, since updated Invisible and 4-5 friends only need $355 now.
 
Discounted Tickets from CfL are now sold out. We need to regroup...

At this point, I think it would be best to shift our focus to folks that have already purchased their tickets but need help with transportation or lodging. From there we focus on students that have yet to purchase tickets, since they are only $35. Essentially, we want to maintain a low dollars/votes ratio, while factoring in money already donated to incomplete ChipIns.
 
Students can still get theirs for $11 through Gary Johnson's website, unless he's sold out, too (doubt it). Still, the biggest expense is the transport and housing. Can't find my bank card, so I can't see my balance unless I get to a bank before closing and get a balance. I just posted on my C4L blog about people coming to RPF and making donations. If everyone can help out, then on and after the 4th, those of us waiting on pay checks can pick up the loose ends and get this done.
Would anyone be interested in having a late night/early morning Chat Room convergence to talk this up and get it done? Maybe the 4th? I'm 13 hours ahead of the east coast, so some of those hours I'd be working, but if we could get over 100 people into the chat room, who knows what can happen?
Also, does YAL have any tickets remaining, or were all theirs through C4L?
 
Currently, the Chip-In total comes to about $172/person. I assume that includes ticket price, if tickets not yet bought. Let's see who's got tickets available: maybe some of the state C4L groups, like New York?

Yup, something like that. I'm kinda beat... I need to edit something into the OP... I think I'm just going to copy ^^^ in
