Dear LINGUIST List:

Our fund drive is approaching the end. From the bottom of our hearts,
thank you! Many people have contributed with either donations, or

International supporters – thank you for your patience with the
Indiana University Foundation system which was not designed to receive
international donations.

Central and Eastern Europe, Africa – we are aware that a donation you
give us costs you more than we in the US can imagine.

Thank you for all your notes and comments that accompanied the
donations. I am trying to respond individually but it takes a lot of
time as over 300 people have donated. We are thankful for the good
words as much as we are thankful for the cash. Cash feeds the
stomachs, good words feed the hearts.
We have collected nearly $18,000 in pledges and donations (out of that
approximately $2,000 in pledges – and I hope the donors will actually
follow through). This is approximately 60% of what we need to collect
till the end of June. So we are not yet in a safe bay, the campaign
goes on although we need to return to our normal jobs, make sure the
lottery books reach you and the totes with the Linguist List logo are
on their way to you.

You can still support the LINGUIST List, either by a donation to
Indiana University Foundation
https://give.myiu.org/iu-bloomington/I320011968.html or eLinguistics
Foundation
https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=87C2AXTVC4PP8.

We need to cover the deficit that we found ourselves in because of the
inflation and the resulting rising costs of labor. We will continue
receiving donations, so do not hesitate if you still can help!

We here in Bloomington are just a service, but we all in different
countries are a community who shares the love for the study of
languages and responsibility for the discipline. Together we are the
LINGUIST List.

With very best wishes,

Malgosia Cavar and Fran Tyers
Moderators of the LINGUIST List
