Mendele Personal Notices & Announcements August 27, 2011
To save wear and tear on the untershames, please comply with these four requests: 1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance. 2. Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments. 3. Write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 4. To respond, contact the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. ____________________________________________________________________ From: indiegogo.com/The-Pin?a=220260&i=addr Subject: YIDDISH FILM LOOKING FOR SUPPORT! The first Yiddish language film ever to be shot in Canada, and the second in North America in over 70 years, is set to shoot mid October and we need your help. It has been a real challenge to fund because of the decision to shoot the film in Yiddish (with English subtitles). Despite a lot of pressure to make it in English, we are sticking to our guns but need your help. We have launched a fundraising page on a crowd funding website called indiegogo - the link is here: http://www.indiegogo.com/The-Pin?a=220260&i=addr This film is an important film. A large number of small donations can make a big difference. So please pass this on to everybody you know - if 3000 people to give $10.00 we will have reached our goal! You can visit the website thepinmovie.com for more details about the film and check out the article just published in the CJN (Canadian Jewish News) http://www.cjnews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21871&Itemid=86 Naomi Jaye Director *extraordinaire* thepinmovie.com http://www.indiegogo.com/The-Pin?a=220260&i=addr _________________________ Please do not use the "reply" key when writing to Mendele.
