Dear Ms. Shore,

Thank you for your generous donation to the annual Link Up for MS Pro Am Golf Tournament. The Bernie & Phyl’s $50 gift certificate was a premier addition to the raffle. It was a beautiful day at the Ferncroft Country Club and we had 92 players, 12 LPGA members, and more than 20 volunteers. To date, this tournament has raised over $80,000! Your generous support of the fight against multiple sclerosis will help to change the face of this devastating disease.

Your participation will not only allow the National MS Society to fund critical research, but it will also enable our Chapter to provide community-based education, support and advocacy in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Through these services we are responding to the needs of the many individuals and their families who are confronted every day by the many challenges of living with multiple sclerosis.

We are also very excited to announce that the third annual Link Up for MS Pro Am Golf Tournament will be held at the Ipswich Country Club, Ipswich, MA on July 24,2006. If you are in-ed in playing or receiving sponsorship opportunities, please contact Melissa Pilicy at 781.890.4990 x129.

Thank you again for your commitment in the fight against Multiple Sclerosis. We look forward to seeing you next year.

Sincerely,

Arlyn A. White
Chapter President

Dear Friends,

Thank you for contributing to the outstanding success of our eighth annual Brian D. Silber Memorial Golf Tournament. With your support, we raised $100,000 for the continued growth of the Brian D. Silber Spine Tumor Clinic at Massachusetts General Hospital. The proceeds from the tournament have helped us reach close to $900,000 for Brian’s Fund. We are deeply touched by the kindness and generosity demonstrated by so many people.

The Brian D. Silber Spine Tumor Clinic is committed to high quality patient care, innovative research, and effective educational programs. In the past year we have seen the continued growth of the Clinic where patients are evaluated, advised, and treated by a multidisciplinary group of doctors. Brian’s Fund also support for a research team focused on spinal cord tumor research.  Our goal is to provide the funds to continue this important work with the hope that one day there will be a cure.

Plans are underway for the ninth annual Brim D. Silber Memorial Golf Tournament which will take place on July 19, 2006. We hope that we can count on you again to participate in this special event.

We are grateful to you for making this tournament a success and for your camaraderie, loyalty, and support. Working together we can truly make a difference in the lives of spine tumor patients and their families.

Sincerely,

Sharon and Jason Silber

Dear Ms. Shore,

On behalf of the Organization for a New Equality (O.N.E;) we would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Bernie & Phyl’s Furniture for your commitment to the silent auction at our annual fundraising event, the Medal of Hope Dinner. Your donation of a $50 gift certificate will help to raise more funds for the Organization which in turn will allow 0.N.E to provide financial education to individuals and families across the nation.

The Medal of Hope dinner is O.N.E’s largest fundraising event and, this year, the Medal of Hope dinner not only celebrates O.N.E’s 20″ anniversary but also the 10″ anniversary of the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) Reform. O.N.E’s 20 years of work and the CRA Reform has led to millions of dollars being invested in low and moderate income communities and thousands of individuals achieving economic independence.

Again, we thank you for your commitment to economic equality. Your generous contribution will help ONE raise critical funds and will allow 0-N.E to continue to bring people into the financial mainstream for many more years to come.

With gratitude,

Rev. Joseph E. Washington
Chairman  & CEO
