Oh, WOW! How cool is this? What a wonderful letter about the huge difference #UglyDogs have made for Alaska Rural Veterinary Outreach! And hey - the total given here is more than we had on the sheet, so that pushes the total for #KoBUCKS440 to over $30,000! @QuinceMountain@twitter.com

With the combined totals from #Igivearod2019 ($114,034) and #KoBUCKS440 ($28,027), over the last month #UglyDogs and #MushingTwitter have raised $142,061 for schools and charitable organizations all across Alaska, from Ketchikan to Utqiagvik, from Tok to Nome!

With @QuinceMountain@twitter.com only 12 miles from Kotzebue, here's a summary of some of the over $27,000 raised in #KoBUCKS440 by #UglyDogs so far. The $5,000+ each for the Kobuk 440 Race and Maniilaq Counseling are amazing, but the $6,440 for projects in Alaskan schools ain't bad either!

We're at $26,156 right now! The #KoBUCKS440 will wrap up today as the last two mushers, Hunter and Q, are only 45 miles from the finish line. #UglyDogs

OK, I've transcribed all of the @Kobuk440@twitter.com mile sponsorships from Facebook over to the #KoBUCKS440 spreadsheet (the "Kobuk Miles!" tab). Make sure to highlight the mile you're sponsoring in yellow so #UglyDogs can represent! http://bit.ly/kobucks

Congratulations, #KoBUCKS440! Another @DonorsChoose@twitter.com project just funded: "Reading, Writing, Oh My!" benefiting 20 students in Sand Point, Alaska (look that up on a map - it's way out there!). Lots of projects still need donations, though: http://bit.ly/kobucks #UglyDogs
