Dear friends --
As it turns out Trish and I will be in Santa Fe tomorrow for meetings near the beginning and end of the day, and a noon window has just opened up between those meetings.
If anyone wants to join us for a lunch discussion at Maria's New Mexico Kitchen, 550 W Cordova Road (map), please do. Apologies for the last minute invite but it's a change of plans for us too.
We'll meet from noon to 2 pm.
We don't know if we will have a room all to ourselves -- it will depend on the number of RSVPs. So if you know you can come, please drop a line to Trish tonight or tomorrow, or call her at 505-577-3366.
I am not going to prepare a talk but will be happy to take questions on the usual range of topics -- those you have seen in our bulletins and letters, including some of what we all might most effectively do in this time of crisis.
Mostly we want to hear from you and know your concerns, and enjoy the company of friends we don't get to see very often.
Thank you for your support, all of you, through the years and recently.
Greg and Trish, for the Study Group
PS Especially with four billboards under contract, we are very much in fundraising mode. They are cheap per view but costly in aggregate! Peer-to-peer fundraising is very important as we said.
Among the easiest ways to give is through PayPal. Here are several more, from our web site:
- Matching gifts are obviously very valuable; some of you might offer such a gift or ask someone else to;
- Some employers will match their employees' contributions;
- Remember the Study Group in your will and/or estate plans; memorial gifts, or life insurance;
- Donate old cars, boats, or real estate;
- Donate stock (thus avoiding capital gains and the associated taxes);
- If you are age 70½ or older and make a contribution directly from your traditional or Roth IRA to a qualified charity, you can donate up to $100,000 without it being considered a taxable distribution;
- Become a sustaining donor to the Study Group and contribute a specified amount each month. Being able to depend on a regular income of a certain amount in sustaining donations each month provides organizations such as ours with a big measure of stability;
- If you live in New Mexico, ask Positive Energy Solar to install a photovoltaic system at your home or business and/or ask a friend or associate to do so. When the project is complete Positive Energy will donate $300 to the Study Group; you must mention our referral when you contract with them; and finally
- You, our loyal friends and members, are the only ones who can reach out to your personal connections and email lists. We do not have your personal connections and contacts.
- We have an on-line donation portal through the PayPal Giving Fund which does not deduct a fee from your donation; or
- Anyone can simply mail a check to our office at: 2901 Summit Place NE, Albuquerque, NM 87106.
