> Dear MENVI Discussion List participants, and all of my friends:
> 
> For those who subscribe to “MENVI mail,” you will have received your new
> membership roster #16 by this evening (Sunday). Membership has now topped
> well over 1,100 - the network was founded in 1997.
> 
> Kindly excuse some repetition in the following message:
> 
> I apologize for sending this as a group letter; but do know that I view
> each of you as individuals, even though we share a common musical world
> together as a kind of special family.
> 
> As of March 31st, SCCM will close its last remaining teaching facility
> after 42 years. The corporation will continue as an entity for outreach,
> limited MENVI services, etc.
> 
> Funds are completely exhausted, and this may be the only way the near half
> century-old non-profit can survive. Even I learned of this only some weeks
> ago, and share much disappointment.
> 
> MENVI print and braille journals will be suspended, as there is only
> enough donor support to sustain basic online services. For a frightening
> time, it appeared as though all network services would stop unexpectedly
> in January, as little advanced notice could be provided.
> 
> An anonymous donor has stepped up to provide the very bare minimum to
> sustain basic web services in order to hold our site, and to maintain the
> discussion list and your subscription services. However, we expect this to
> last only for about three months until end of March. Needless to say, help
> would be greatly appreciated, as SCCM has no funds to continue sponsorship
> as we once knew it.
> 
> Keep good thoughts, and by all means, visit the discussion list often.
> Check your new roster listings for accuracy as well.
> 
> Sincerely,
> Richard Taesch
