Yes, you read that subject line right. We’ve reached the magic number!
500 times since November, 2002, you’ve heard a little bell ring, and found the Scribbles newsletter in your email inbox – absolutely free.
What would you say the combination of Literary Celebrations, Information, Events, and Calls for Submissions was worth to you, per issue? A penny? A nickel? Maybe a dime or a quarter? Dare I hope – a dollar?
I ask for a very good reason.
One time a year, I ask that you return a little of the good karma Scribbles has brought into your life in a tangible way. Not by sending money to me, but by making a modest donation to a cause near and dear to your faithful Scribbler – the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation’s Walk for a Cure.
The disease took my father and my brother. Help us find a cure, so other families don’t have to suffer like that.
Please click here to go to my personal walk page, and join our walk team, Robert’s Racers, or make a donation.
You’ll see that I’ve kicked things off with my own donation of $100. So think back to my earlier question. If each Scribbles was worth a penny to you, please donate $5 to help cure diabetes. If it was worth a nickel, dime, or quarter to you, that’s $25, $50, or $125. And if you’d pay a $1 each time you’ve enjoyed Scribbles, that’s an incredible $500 donation.
Don’t have extra cash lying around? Then consider joining our walk team, and asking 10 friends for a $10 donation. We’ll take a nice walk around the UCF campus at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 5th, and you’re guaranteed to feel fabulous afterward. Don’t make me come get you!
Any help you can give is sincerely appreciated by JDRF &
Your Scribbler,
Darlyn Finch
