    It is our policy to solicit only one donation from every donor in a donor's lifetime --
    we will never ask for your support again. (We will accept your repeated support if it is offered, of course).
    We do ask that every donor help us further by soliciting two new donors.

    We are seeking one Million (1,000,000) donors in order to establish the Operating Fund Endowment with $25 million in a trust fund. Support us in our mission and get two friends to support us as well.
