Dear Subscribers, Happy New Year! We hope you had a fantastic holiday season. NEohioPAL is now in its 19th year of providing people like you a valuable tool that draws together Northeast Ohio's arts community. Your donation keeps this unique performing arts resource alive and free to all readers and posters. Last year a modest number (around 3.1%) of NEohioPAL supporters generously helped us defray costs. Here is a list <http://www.fredsternfeld.com/neohiopal/northeast-ohio-performing-arts-list-contributors/> of those people who chose to have their names listed. NEohioPAL supporters are performers, artists and arts lovers who recognize the value of staying in touch with our region's arts scene. They are also people who realize that we have some very real expenses: web hosting, bandwidth, utilities, supplies and our time keeping the site free of SPAM and running smoothly. If you have ever learned of an audition, found a job, promoted your event or had a great night out at a performance, please consider supporting our efforts through a donation. To donate, please go to http://www.fredsternfeld.com/support-neohiopal/. At that site you will find the Paypal link to volunteer your financial support - OR - mail a check (put your email address in the check's memo section so we can acknowledge your donation and thank you on the contributors's page) made out to "NEohioPAL, Ltd." and send it to: NEohioPAL, Ltd. c/o Fred Sternfeld 24021 Halburton Rd. Beachwood, Ohio 44122 Here are suggestions to help you decide what to donate: 14 cents per day = $50 per year 20 cents per day = $75 per year *27 cents per day = $100 per year* *50 cents per day = $182.50 per year* *1 dollar per day = $365 per year* Any amount ($5 or $10 is fine) is helpful. If you are able to do more, even better. Thanks for your participation in making the arts scene in Northeast Ohio vibrant and collaborative.

We will post this message to NEohioPAL several times over the next four weeks. After that, we will not do a direct "ask" again until January of next year.
