[Trainer-talk] Urgent: please sign this petition to help a blind kid!

[Beth Koenig]

This was put together quickly. We setup the petition on Care2.org and
then I wrote the email. We have setup a facebook page
http://www.facebook.com/NathanBlindPreschooler that I did last night.
If you want to contact me my complete contact info is below. I
forwarded the email from my agency's list and forgot to include my
signature.
Thanks,
Beth Koenig

If I don't see a phone number and web address after the signature line, I always think "fake" email.  Then I will do a web search on the company to confirm my suspicion.  The real web address will not match anything in the phony email.
