As of Feb. 28, Cooperative Program (CP) gifts received by the Executive Committee totaled $82,893,069.47 or $1,003,117.86 behind the $83,896,187.33 received at the end of February 2010.
Monthly CP receipts totaled $17,240,609.30 while designated gifts received last month amounted to $48,674,050.66.
