Hello,
I'm sending this email because some of you may be visual artists -- or know 
visual artists -- 
 
Last August, my husband, Chad Blooming,  was diagnosed with ALS -- Lou 
Gehrig's disease -- a fatal illness with no treatment.  A friend of his (Bob 
Peterson) is organizing an art auction to raise money for ALS research.  The auction 
will be held in Cleveland in October -- a definite date hasn't been set yet.  
Artists from all over the country are expected to contribute.  The money 
collected will all go directly to ALS research.
 
The auction is open to any and all types of art.  So of course I was 
wondering if any of you would be willing to contribute something to be auctioned?  Or 
perhaps you know someone who would contribute?   (You will be able to use the 
price of the piece as a deduction on your income tax -- as a charitable 
contribution.  And the amount would be whatever amount you set -- not the selling 
price at the auction.)  
 
If you are willing to contribute something -- and/or if you have any 
questions -- please contact either Bob Peterson, or Melissa who is handling the 
organization of the auction.  I've listed their numbers below.  If you know someone 
who might be able to contribute -- please forward this note on to them.
 
Of course, we will really appreciate your help.  ALS is considered an 
"orphan" disease in that it just doesn't have much of a base for research funding.  
Any amount is helpful -- and could be just that dollar that helps to find a 
cure!!!
 
Also, please let Bob or Melissa know if you would like to attend the auction 
and they will put you on the list to receive an invitation.
 
Thank you!
Ellen Pill

artists.=20

to PAY when hiring actors or crew for theater, television, print or film =
production any time between June, 2004 and today, please email Jean =
Zarzour, at info at gotpay.org with your contact information to be =
interviewed for the GOT FEATURE? page at www.gotpay.org. =20

Likewise, if you are an artists who has been paid to work for a company =
that previously did not pay artists, please contact me to be featured as =
well.=20

Even if you never pay an artist for their participation in future =
projects, but did so in the last year, I want to hear from you.  Your =
story is an inspiration to artists and employers alike.

The interview style feature will promote you and/or your company and the =
project that you were hired for or hired the artist(s) for, accompanied =
