TCN Fundraiser – Last Week
It's Memorial Day in
the US but that doesn't mean the TCN takes a day off. In fact, the TCN is sent every weekday regardless of
holidays, weather or vacations.
For example, Friday's TCN was put together in a public library in Port
Henry, New York while I took a short vacation on Lake Champlain in Vermont. Twice a year I hold a month-long
fundraiser to support the work needed to send you the TCN. A number of you have already
contributed and I want to thank you.
Those still considering sending a contribution will find information on
how to contribute below. Thank
you!
