Some of the problem may be my mistake because I may have chosen days of the week or month that aren’t available to you. Therefore, I write to ask each of you to email me at <a href="mailto:mmcatitude@gmail.com">mmcatitude@gmail.com</a> and tell me which days of the week have full evenings for you, evenings when you absolutely, positively cannot have a Fundraising Committee Meeting. I’m asking all of you in the Chapter because you’re all invited to join the Fundraising Team. Also, tell me which week of the month is most available for you, i.e. the first? The second? Etc. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> I want to schedule meetings when you have time for them. Fundraising is important and it takes a lot of work by many people working together. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Thank you very much; together we’ll do great things, and I look forward to hearing from you. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sincerely,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Mary L.
