And now:Ish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: From: Robert Dorman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> From BIGMTLIST I am starting a special Big Mountain mailing list. It will not be through onelist, but will be administered by me. Its purpose will be FINANCIAL AID for the Dineh causes. Its postings will be messages concerning financial (and sometimes material, like clothes or building supplies) needs of the Dineh and projects of their support persons and organizations. I ask that ONLY persons committed to help the Dineh with at least some (however small) level of financial support join this list. This is not intended to be legally binding; but, by the number of subscribers, it may help supporters to determine the likelyhood of of various projects (like sponsoring trips to the UN for elders, rebuilding hogans, buying firewood, etc.) being completed. Also, and this is not a requirement but would be vary helpfull, if you could indicate a rough figure for the amount (annually) you might be willing to donate. This personal information will NOT be posted to the list. I will NOT be collecting any money. The list postings will show how much is needed, where the funds are to be sent, how they will be used, and whether or not they will be tax-deductable. The list names will be kept confidential. If you are going to respond to a posting with a contribution, it would be helpfull if you could let me know your intent, so that I can keep track of how close to the target amount we are. As soon as the target amount is reached, I will post to the list so that the rest of you will hold off on further contributions to that project. If very little seems to be comming in for a project, and the deadline is getting close, I will make an emergency appeal to the list to inform you that more funds are needed quickly. This list is not a replacement for BIGMTLIST, but a supplement strictly for finance matters. I hope that you will all consider how important supporting the Dineh cause is, not only from a humanitarian standpoint, but for helping them to continue with their sacred ceremonies that are so important for the welfare and healing of our planet and its peoples. If you wish to be included in this special financial effort, please email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] indicating that you wish to help out and want to be placed on the BMFINANCE list. Thank you all for your continued support for the Dineh in whatever capacity you are able. --Bob Dorman, BIGMTLIST moderator.
