Our hearts go out to the people in the Philippines suffering from the devastation caused by the recent typhoon.  We always feel somewhat powerless to help in such situations, but at least we can try to offer some small financial assistance.  As we have done with past tragedies, such as Hurricane Sandy, Hurricane Katrina and the Earthquake/Tsunamis in Haiti, Thailand and Japan, we are pledging one half of our monthly income from <u>annual membership renewals</u> collected through the end of the month to the American Red Cross.  So, if you’ve been thinking about catching up on your dues, now may be a very good time, or if you just want to send along a donation, we’ll add it to ours and make sure it gets into the right hands. Please note: this donation does not apply to the purchase of a lifetime membership. To renew, you can follow the convenient Paypal link, (using any major credit card, and you don’t need to be signed up for Paypal,) or you can send payment (in U.S. Dollars) to our offices at P.O. Box 1973 Studio City, CA 91614, USA.
