Dear Readers,

After an amazing forty-eight hours of donations, we have barely $400
left to go of Fund Drive!

Help us maintain the services you've come to expect, by contributing
to this urgent drive for funds!

Here's what one subscriber had to say about our services:

>>>>>
Maybe I've said it before, but it's worth saying again: if we
linguists cannot each cough up at least SOME amount of money for
LINGUIST List, then as a profession don't deserve to have it at all!
LL is the single most useful and interesting entity for the practicing
linguist, and I thank all of y'all, especially you and Anthony, for
originating it and keeping it going; please don't ever stop!

The check is in the mail. I am always sorry it cannot be more; I am
now both retired and unemployed, but I will continue to support LL
forever.
<<<<<

So please, please, please donate now and help us end Fund Drive Today!

Thank you, Your LINGUIST Crew

Subject: How to donate...


This Year the LINGUIST List hope to raise $48,867. 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.

Alternatively you can also pledge right now and pay later.

For all information on donating and pledging, including information on
how to donate by check, money order, or wire transfer, please visit:

http://linguistlist.org/donate.html

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!
