Trying to Donate things to Universities take a while.

I am excited to report that I have apparently been successful at “getting through” to some of the key decision makers from both our Museum of Art, our Museum of Peoples & Cultures, and our Philanthropic-giving/receiving branch.  On Monday afternoon, I will be meeting with all of the above (in two separate meetings) with the desired outcome being “next-steps” identified.  I can tell you that the interest level is extremely high.  If we need to get you into our meeting via phone, will you be available at 4 pm your time?
 
The person we are needing to meet with re: the textiles…Paul, has a tentative schedule, since his wife is due to deliver a baby any minute now, but we’re still trying to coordinate everyone’s schedules.  The 2 pm meeting (4 – your time) is with our Museum of Art folks.
 
I’ll talk to you Monday mid-morning, either way, re: hope things are looking.  Hope that helps.  I am very sorry things have moved so slowly.  Take care.

I'm still working it - I really hope these donations go through and I won't ever have to pay taxes again

I won't ever have to pay taxes again

That has a nice ring to it!
