Help Fluoride Action Network Meet It's Fundraising Goal by Dec 31st
December 28, 2012
DECEMBER BULLETIN #25Dear Friends:Yesterday was a fabulous day in our fundraiser but first let me tell you about FAN’s new video. It features Dr. Yolanda Whyte a pediatrician from Atlanta, Georgia (last year FAN helped to get Dr. Whyte to Milwaukee and NYC to help in the battles there). In this video she explains why she is opposed to fluoridation.
I believe this video (produced by Michael Connett and Kevin Hurley) will be a potent new weapon in trying to reach the ordinary person on this issue. It is only 4 minutes long but packs a powerful message especially for young parents. I think our revamped website easily wins the scientific arguments but if we wish to persuade the general public to end fluoridation we need communication tools like this.
But making videos like this is not cheap. It involves airfares, studio time, and editing time. So, if you like this video please consider making a donation to FAN. Right now we are about to reach a total that will keep us going (i.e. the basics: salaries, office expenses, travel, maintaining the website etc) but if we want to pay for exciting projects like this – that have the potential to outreach to millions more people - we need a little more from supporters like yourself.
Fundraiser updateWe have just 4 days left to reach our goal of $100,000. Yesterday was our biggest day yet. We raised a staggering $12,612 from 25 people. This brings our grand total to $66,115 from 319 donors and very close to our next mini-goal of $70,000, which will trigger another $7,500 pledged by several of our most generous donors. All donations are tax-deductible.
If you can make a donation, however small, you can donate online (details) or send a check payable to FAN, 104 Walnut Street, Binghamton, NY 13905. All FAN premiums (T-shirt, Tote bag, Coffee mug) were made in the U.S. and every donation of $10 or more will receive a free copy of our DVD Professional Perspectives on Water Fluoridation.
Our fundraising totals are updated regularly on our homepage and in these daily bulletins.
Thank you for all who have donated so generously so far and for all the other things you are doing to help end fluoridation worldwide.
