Greetings to all past and present students of Marywood University and to all friends of Marywood!
Last year we made a plate of the entrance to Marywood for my Mom, who attended Marywood from 1946 to 1948. My great aunt also attended Marywood, and my sister-in-law has a Master's Degree from Marywood.
I wanted to do something for Marywood so we offered to make our Marywood plate a fundraiser plate. We will donate all of our normal profit after our expenses to the Marywood Fund. When you buy one of our plates for $15 we will give $7 of it to the Marywood Fund.
The current plate was photographed on Saturday morning of Mother's Day Weekend, 2007. We will have the plate from Mother's Day Weekend 2008 shortly. Either plate can be purchased as a fundraiser.
We are going to extend this offer to ANY plates YOU have made which relate to Marywood.
This is how we expect it to work:
You have a digital photograph relating to Marywood that you want to make into a set of plates.
You pay the regular price for the first four, that is $48. After your plates are made, we will post a picture of the plate in the fundraiser album. Any additional plates purchased after that will be considered fundraiser plates and the $15/$7 split will apply.
In the near future we plan to purchase a scanner of sufficient quality to be able to scan older photographs to make them into picture plates. We will let you know when that capability is available.
One additional point, on the shipping costs. If we can deliver your order to the Alumni Office at Marywood for pickup, there will be no charge for shipping. If your order needs to be shipped to your home address, we will send it in the most cost effective way we can find. Right now we are using U. S. Post Office flat rate priority mail. We do not know how much the new postal rates will effect the cost of shipping.
