Hi Kathy,

I think figuring out what needs to be done in terms of fundraising
is part of what needs to be done :).

Does anyone know where the bulk of the funds came from last year?
was it the RDI conference? Is anyone from this group attending this
year?

I remember in the past people had thrown out all sorts of ideas for
fundraising, maybe those are still accessible in the archives for this
group.
