Dear West Point Parents, Family, and Friends:

I am excited to see our West Point family coming together to
support Fund Drive 9. The $95,000 goal will sustain WP-ORG
operations and services for the next six months. Unlike other
calls that you receive daily to donate money, when you make your
donations to WP-ORG, you know exactly where your money is going
and what it is being used for. Thank you to all who have already
donated. In just over three weeks, contributions total $38, 996,
41% of our goal. Take a look at how graduates, WP parents, and
Navy parents are working together to support WP-ORG:

If you are reading this message, then you are already benefiting
from WP-ORG's forums for parents. I have had the pleasure of
moderating Parent-Forum for the last year. So many parents tell
me that they would not know what to do without the information
that they receive on Parent-Forum, Plebe-Net, and WPP-Net. I have
even had parents ask if there is a cost to join Parent-Forum. No,
I tell them...it's FREE.

But all of these facilities and services cost money to operate,
and that is why we have fund drives twice a year. Every penny of
every donation goes towards supporting the continuing operations
of WP-ORG, especially our parent forums.

We have a real need for your assistance: every contribution
counts, and your donation now will help bring FD9 to a successful
conclusion soon. Think of the satisfaction you will derive from
participating in FD9 and helping to support the operation of
parent forums and websites.

For those of you who are new members of WP-ORG and may not be
familiar with everything we do, I suggest you go to the following
site:

            <https://www-secure.west-point.org/wporg/why_donate>

Making your donation is SO easy. Use our secure credit card site
at:

            <https://www-secure.west-point.org/wporg/donate/>

Remember to specify PARENT--even if you are a Grandparent, other
family member, or belong to us for some other reason--and indicate
class year if appropriate.

If you prefer to make your donation using a check, please make it
payable to WP-ORG, indicate "Parent" and class year in the memo
part of the check, and mail to:

            WP-ORG
            P.O. Box 2108
            Abingdon, VA 24212-2108

Our donations are 100% tax deductible, because WP-ORG is now a
501(c)(3) organization.

Early in the last fund drive, I challenged you to help bring FD8
home before I had to write my second scheduled appeal. And your
did it! Let's do it again. My second FD9 appeal is scheduled for
June 21st, almost R-Day. Let's all get involved and put FD9 over
the top well before then.

WP-ORG serves us every day. Thank you for your support
