NATURAL STONE COUNCIL MAKES FINAL PUSH IN 2007 FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN . . .
The NSC’s Fundraising Committee, led by Brenda Edwards, has collected 90% of their goal amount to date, with three months left to secure the last 10%. The money raised has enabled the NSC to make significant progress in their branding campaign for Genuine Stone as well as supporting the Sustainability Committee on benchmarking studies and industry awareness initiatives. These efforts would be non-existent without the financial support of donors.
