[NEohioPAL]LITERATURE AND ARTS FOR OUR TROOPS

[shalene shimer]

Friends of the arts community:

A site has come to my attention that I think all of us can contribute to.  
Books for Soldiers is a group which provides donated literature to our men 
and women fighting overseas.  http://www.booksforsoldiers.com/

All types of literature are appreciated, as many soldiers have requests for 
anything.  I think this a great opportunity for artists to send their gently 
worn scriptbooks and play anthologies.  There is also a PayPal option for 
those who would rather not part from their much loved copy of "Death of a 
Salesman".  As a cousin of an officer currently stationed in N. Korea and 
the daughter of a disabled American veteran, I hope that all of you will 
peruse the site and can hopefully give in some way or form.  Whether you 
support the effort that the soldiers are there for or not, we must remember 
that as artists one of our goals is to nuture the mind and soul, and I think 
of no better way to reach them than through this type of charity.

Thank you for your time.

Shalene
