we are now halfway through the campaign and have already raised $7,553 between
online and in - store donations. i am so impressed with the progress we have made so far.
i am beyond grateful to our generous donors and incredibly hard - working staff. with the
money we raise, well be able to continue to fulfill our mission to protect the animal and
plant life along cabot cove.
lets keep the momentum going. in fact, lets aim to exceed our initial goal by another
$5,000. we can do it!

what is the main purpose of this memo?
to invite employees to attend a fundraising campaign event
to ask employees to donate money towards the fundraising goal
to inform employees about the status of the fundraising goal

Explanation:

• The first option is incorrect as the memo doesn't mention an event to attend.
• The second option is incorrect as the memo doesn't ask employees to donate; it reports progress and sets a new goal.
• The third option is correct because the memo shares the campaign's progress (halfway through, amount raised) and updates on the goal (aim to exceed initial goal), so it informs employees about the fundraising status.

Answer:

to inform employees about the status of the fundraising goal
