History of Manilow's Modems Fundraisers

2007

"RELAY FOR LIFE" - Newbury Park, CA - supporting The SimiSu Aktion Club - $600

2006

"Manilow Fund for Health and Hope" - Contributions by our MM members are estimated at around $8,130 for the year 2006!

Although we have approximately 430 current members, we were only able to track a little over 100 members, but that alone was impressive. With an online club all around the world and the size of ours, the days of raffles and fundraising has become difficult. The exchange rate from country to country makes it difficult, and the cost to ship prizes won, can become costly.
