Thanks Template:U, Looks good. We need to tie it to the anniversary of the Marshall Plan to add to the interestingness quotient. Else, this might be read as just another funding event. Ktin (talk) 21:06, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
I don't agree, because those who won't associate the "Marshall Plan" per "Marshall Fund" will probably also not be interested in some anniversary.
