We’re closing in on a new record for the Challenge. We set a record last year with $89,160. Can we beat that this year??? The answer lies in YOUR hands. Here are the folks who have accepted that challenge in the past few days. (FTR, we are now at 100 individuals and groups donating to the Challenge this year.)

In this update, we’re pleased to acknowledge the support of Deep Blue Scuba & Swim Center in Long Beach with a Silver-level $500 donation. They’re longtime supporters of this event and are also a good example of a dive business supporting the industry it serves.

We’re inside of four weeks to go and this is when the pace starts picking up. And while we’re in a good place right now with the Challenge, we want to remind you that not only does Chamber Day as an event provide around 50% of the funding for our Chamber, but it’s always prudent to have an extra financial cushion if possible. That helps us cover unanticipated major expenses like a few years ago when a compressor went down and had to be replaced.

Every dollar you donate helps make our diving safety net here in SoCal more secure. And the way you do that is by going to our donation page and giving whatever you can. Here’s the direct link: https://usc.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_dp3rzL7cVCFp1rM .
