Can You Help?
A question and answer request

Q: So what's up?
A: Well…we're having a bit of a budget crunch.

Q: Can you say more about the crunch?
A: Sure. Quite some time ago some wonderful donors made a big donation to Dancing Rabbit. We've saved most of that money until now, and this year we're going to build our common house with it. So this is the first year that we won’t have the interest from that savings to cover a budget shortfall. Eeeek! We've already cut the budget about as much as we can…if we cut it any more, we'll have to start completely cutting out important programs. We really don't want to start charging visitors, or not have interns or work exchangers, or do fewer outreach events, or host fewer college classes!

Q: What does that have to do with me?
A: Good question! We'd love to offer you the chance to help us out. If you have any extra money lying around, or know people who do, please send it to us at 1 Dancing Rabbit Lane, Rutledge, MO 63563, or visit our online donation page. Even if it's only a couple bucks, it could really help a lot.

Q: What if I don't have any extra money?
A: We understand. Hey, we're in the same boat after all. Some other ways to help us with our work are to ask folks you know if they might be able to donate. Or maybe you have some stuff (a laptop you're not using? tools for a tool co-op?) or skills (art for the newsletter? surveying and mapping?) you could donate instead. You can also help a lot by spreading the word: tell your friends about us (and maybe even pass along this newsletter when you're finished with it). Publicize the good work we're doing. Keep on inspiring us by continuing to do all the great things you're doing in your neck of the woods--and tell us about them! Simply contact us if you want to explore any of these options further.

Thanks for reading, and for your support!
