Hi radio heritage friends:
There's a lot happening to make
our website much better for you to use, and our radio heritage project stronger!
We'll be adding some highlights from our recent annual report to www.radioheritage.net soon.
And, now read on.............now
we can start to focus on saving radio memories and memorabilia with less
worries...we hear every day of people and stations just trashing their history,
their heritage..tossing it all out when they're moving, when they end a hobby or
interest...so much is irreplaceable and we could weep at what's still being
lost...for 10 years now we've started just one memory at a time, one piece of
memorabilia..and yes, it's worth saving. It really is.
More Good
News
_____________
Finally after months of delays, we now have
confirmation that 50% of the weekly costs should be underwritten from July
1.....it's a very generous arrangement. It should take a big pressure off us,
even though we'll still require $225 each week from elsewhere. So please
consider joining the journey with us so finally we can do more to keep the radio
memories and share the wonderful stories and other memorabilia in our
collections.
The next few weeks
__________________
For
April 1 -June 30 [our first quarter] our operational costs are $A5,834, and so
far we have $A3,470 thanks to generous ongoing donors. But, that leaves us with
$A2,364 still to find to make these good news events start to happen in the
coming weeks. Will you help be able to help us? It's less than $1 each from the
people on this mailing list, over 225 of whom continue to give generously year
after year to help fund this global radio memories project.
As you know.
we accept donations at www.radioheritage.net, acknowledge donors
by name on the honor roll, and remind you that we get no government or
institutional grants...we're independent, and free for the community to use. But
we rely on the community to fund us, it's as simple as that. We're a non-profit,
run by volunteers. We meet the many needs of the thousands of people who visit
www.radioheritage.net each
month.....................
Again, thanks for staying
true!

Thank you so much for your
patience! I'm sure you almost as frustrated getting these sorts of emails as we
are sending them out. The reality is that few businesses want to partner us
because we're too small, it's an issue facing thousands upon thousands of
non-profits everywhere.
If you've heard from us recently and/or responded
already, thank you for your patience. It is sincerely welcomed.
