***This is a message from a member of Friends of Students for 60,000*** Hola to All. Reminder that we will be meeting first Thursday in June, which is Thurs. June 4 at room H109 of the HS. At the May meeting it was announced that SG Foundation of Calif has agreed (verbally so far, but they say written confirmation will come) to provide us with $6000 in "matching" dollars for our Nicaragua housing initiative. In other words, if we raise $6000, SG will match it. So we'll have $12000 for about 6-8 houses if we succeed. In mid May Dick sent out an email explaining this, and seeking donations from those willing. So far we've received two checks, one for $1000 and one for $100. So we're on our way. SG said they'd provide guidelines, but mentioned that it either had to be "new" money, or from donors who haven't given in 2 years. I'll let everyone know at the meeting. Many topics to discuss. I'll not be going to Nicaragua in June, but perhaps in July or August with Mike Cipoletti if/when he goes during those months. Or alone. We'll see.

Adam has made available an email service that is hosted by the same people that are hosting the fsf60k website (which is not up yet). In other words this would be another email account in addition the the one you already have. The benefit is that it would read: you(whatever you choose)@fsf50k.org It is not necessary to sign up. It is being offered if it is of help to you. I am going to get an account because it will look more official when I am dealing with vendors and and other organizations and will also help to keep my club correspondence separate from my personal emails. Some people have chosen not to get the additional account. It is a matter of personal preference. I hope this message is more clear. Thanks for the responses so far. You can send requests, questions to pardo123@xxxxxxxxxx Thanks, George ------------------------------ End of fsf60k Digest V4 #60 *************************** *** You can unsubscribe from this list by sending an email to fsf60k-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the subject field.
