So you're surprised, perhaps angry, maybe a little disheartened or maybe you're fired up and you want to do something with that extra energy! There is still a lot to be done and we're more than willing to work with you to contribute in whatever way you'd like.
1. Pledge.
Pledge, pledge, pledge. Pledge $5.00. Get together with your friends and pass the hat around and pledge that. Have a party and charge to get in and pledge that. Tell your Brother in Law "I know you were thinking about pledging so do it now!" Teach your Great Aunt how navigate the web and take her to http://www.savethenorthcoastnhm.org/
Because the more money we have ready to go -- the more hard evidence we have that our model is feasible and supported. Money talks...
2. Write a letter to the Editor. Any Editor -- all Editors.
The press gets the word out -- and we need the word out there. You can find all of the information you need to write a letter here. Or you can go to the top of the blog and click on "show your support." Tell them why you love the museum. Tell them about the last time you went there. Tell them to visit the blog and website. Tell everyone who reads the letter to write a letter themselves.
If you have any questions about information or our press releases or anything you can always email us savethenorthcoastnhm@gmail.com and we will get back to you.
3. Write a letter and send it to us! You can direct the letter to HSU, the President of HSU, the community at large or whomever. We'll in turn post it on the blog (to get your word out) and send it along with our letters and requests to HSU.
If you're going to write a letter to the President of HSU we ask that you write it soon as we're trying to start working with them again as soon as we can.
Email us and we can talk more about details if you'd like. savethenorthcoastnhm@gmail.com
4. Write to me! Write me an email savethenorthcoastnhm@gmail.com and answer the question "why the museum should remain open to the public" or answer the other question "why I love the natural history museum." Or you can even write a statement about what compelled you to write a statement in the first place.
Email it to me -- we'll put it up everywhere we can. Include in this email your contact information (Name, Email, Phone) if you would like us to include the statement in a press release/ packet sent to the press. Or if you want to remain anonymous we can do that too.
5. Tell us if we've missed anything. Have you been sitting on an idea but didn't want to share it? Or didn't have a moment to share it? Email it! savethenorthcoastnhm@gmail.com
We're still getting together fundraising ideas and sustainability plan ideas, volunteers, people and businesses who are willing to show their support. So if you're cooking up something let us know!
6. Sign up for the blog updates. Become our friend on Facebook.
7. Pledge.
8. And believe it... we're not giving up.
