Your
Help

Dear Week Online reader:
Since we launched our latest
book offer, Jacob Sullum's "Saying Yes: In Defense of Drug Use," and appealed
to our readers for to help us reach the fall when major grants are expected
to be received, more than 250 of you have responded to the call with book
orders and donations providing much-needed funds. Because of you,
we continue!
Because we are looking at
more months, however, DRCNet's adverse financial situation unfortunately
still remains. We need more of your help, from more of you, in order
to continue to operate and get through this difficult time. The fall
is likely to see exciting and groundbreaking new projects at DRCNet, along
with the rest of our core work. So please help assure DRCNet can
continue functioning until then by visiting http://www.drcnet.org/donate/
and making the most generous contribution you can afford -- $35 or more
will still get you a free copy of "Saying Yes," or your choice of our other
current membership premiums.
You can also send in your
donation by mail -- visit http://www.drcnet.org/donate/
and click on the PDF link to print out a form to send in, or just mail
your check or money order to: DRCNet, P.O. Box 18402, Washington,
DC 20036 -- and contact us for instructions if you'd like to make a contribution
of stock. (Remember that that donations to the Drug Reform Coordination
Network are not tax-deductible. If you wish to make a tax-deductible
donation to support our educational work, make your check payable to DRCNet
Foundation, same address.)
Please visit http://www.drcnet.org/wol/289.html#sayingyes
if you haven't read Phil Smith's review of "Saying Yes" in the Week Online,
including pictures from an author reception last month, and visit http://www.cato-institute.org/events/030529bf.html
for video footage of Sullum's book talk at the Cato Institute.
Again, please visit http://www.drcnet.org/donate/
today so DRCNet can continue our crucial work toward stopping the unjust
"war on drugs," including this newsletter.
