Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers,

My name is Erica Wicks, and I have been a student editor at 
The LINGUIST List since July of 2009. In the past two years, 
I have grown professionally and personally in ways that I never 
imagined possible. This is why I would like to seize this 
opportunity to thank all of you for supporting The LINGUIST 
List. I owe this wonderful opportunity to you because The 
LINGUIST List could not operate without your donations. Please 
donate to this year's Fund Drive to keep the organization alive:

https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

Donating to The LINGUIST List gives students like me the 
opportunity broaden our knowledge and give something back to 
the linguistic community. 100% of your donations goes to 
helping us provide you with the best resources possible.  I 
have the great fortune of editing the NoticeBoard submissions 
to our listserv, designed to help answer your questions about 
everything from housing to resource-finding.  Through NoticeBoard 
and other features of The LINGUIST List (like our Job and 
Conference announcements) we can be a direct benefit to linguists 
today.

Even if you can only send $25 or $50 our way, you will be 
helping us out in a BIG way. You contribution helps support 
another year of The LINGUIST List publishing more of the 
linguistics information you need.  Please support us at:

With my sincerest thanks,

Erica Wicks 






This Year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $67,000. This money will go to help

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

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!
