GALA list and IGALA members: Join, and support the LINGUIST list

Tue Apr 6 15:14:21 UTC 2010

Dear IGALA members, and those who read about Gender and Language issues via the GALA list,

As we eagerly anticipate the coming IGALA6 conference in Japan this fall, I ask your support for IGALA by renewing your membership, joining if you haven't before, and helping us promote language, gender and sexuality research throughout the world. 

You can join IGALA by following this link

The LINGUIST list people have issued another appeal to help them support the people who make the LINGUIST list--and our own GALA e-list--possible, and I'd like to invite you to help support the list that makes IGALA work possible. Please

Dear Subscribers,

the other 96.92% to come and do so as well!

We need your help to end Fund Drive! The Advisors are
helping by donating $2,000 themselves IF subscribers
can raise the rest of the $8,000 needed to end Fund
Drive. Since the challenge started, we have raised
over $1,300, but there are $6629.56 left!

Help your fellow subscribers with your donation!

This Year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $65,000. This money will go to help
keep the List running by supporting all of our Student Editors for the coming year.

There are many ways to donate to LINGUIST!

You can donate right now using our secure credit card form at  
https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

Alternatively you can also pledge right now and pay later. To do so, go to:
https://linguistlist.org/donation/pledge/pledge1.cfm

For all information on donating and pledging, including information on how to

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact
your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company
operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
