Hey everyone,

As mentioned last week, CFRC is in the middle of its funding drive, with the goal of raising $5000 to help offset the loss of the $48,000 that the Alma Mater Society used to provide us. My show has a target to raise, which I've already raised by myself (thanks VISA!), but if you want to pitch in I would be greatly appreciative.

There are basically two ways to donate:

1. Through the web at https://www.givetoqueens.ca/forms/form.php and make sure that you write "CFRC" in the Clubs field so that CFRC receives your donations

2. Call in at 533-CFRC (2372). You can make a prepledge or pledge using your credit card

3. Visit the pledge table at one of our CFRC Co-sponsored Events (see http://www.cfrc.ca)

What do you get for your pledge?

If you give through the web, you can get a tax receipt
If you call in or drop by the station, you can get a gift or a tax receipt (but not both).

Gifts eh? What are we talking about, Pez dispensers?

I wish. I love Pez. But we do have a lot of goodies to offer, more than I expected. The list is at http://www.cfrc.ca/funding_drive_gifts.html

Highlights include (minimum $15 donation):
-Beck's Guerolito CD
-Sarah Harmer's I'm a Mountain CD
-The Most Serene Republic Cinematographer CD
-The Soundtrack of our lives CD
-Cuff the Duke Self Titled CD
-The Caesars Paper Tigers CD
-In-Flight Safety Vacation Land CD
-Andy Stochansky's 100 CD
-Brendan Benson's The Alternative to Love CD
-Emm Gryner's Songs of Love and Death CD
-Bloc Party's Silent Alarm CD
-The Kaiser Cheifs Employment CD

and this email is getting too long so check out the rest of the list will ya?

Just remember though that these gifts can only be obtained if you make a pledge by phoning and picking up your gift at the station but you can ask the operator to give the gift to me and I'll get it to you

Expect to hear today:
