>Hi!  My name is Lindsay Baran.  I am a member of Link Community 
>Development, a student organization focused on linking the 
>Champaign/Urbana community to communities in Northern Cape, South 
>Africa.  For more information on the organization, please read the 
>attached letter from Link's founder and president, Judd Holzman.
>
>On April 25th, LINK will be putting on a Walk for Africa.  As AIDS 
>and famine continue to spread throughout Africa, this is one of the 
>ways in which we hope to show our support.  Our goal is to raise 
>$10,000 to start an HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment and education 
>program in Northern Cape elementary schools. 
>
>We are looking for help in various ways- from monetary contributions 
>to planning the event, to simply showing up to show your support! 
>We are hoping for this to be a community-wide event, and we could 
>like to get as many organizations involved.  As a sponsor, you can 
>be recognized on our t-shirts and signs depending upon the level of 
>sponsorship (bronze, silver or gold).  If you would prefer to make a 
>team, you can pay the registration fee and each member will receive 
>a t-shirt.  However, please realize that ANY donation OR other form 
>of help would be greatly appreciated and help us immensely in 
>reaching our goal. 
>
>If you would like to help us in our endeavors, please contact me. 
>For more information on Link and the Walk, please read the attached 
>letter.  If you are not the current president of your organization, 
>please pass this on to the appropriate person J Thank you for your 
>time, and I hope to be hearing back from you!
>Lindsay Baran
