Brothers:
If you live the Maryland, Virginia and DC areas, here is one way you can
be of service to help someone in need.
Please review the following information which was forwarded to me.
Hopefully we can be of service.
In a recent appeal for donations for bone marrow tests for the Region VI
APO brother who is awaiting a match, more than $2,000 was raised as of
Oct. 26. As soon as I have final tally, I will share that with you.
To everyone who made donations over the past couple of weeks to help
cover the costs of the bone marrow tests, please accept my sincerest
thanks. Helping a brother is service to the Fraternity.
Yours in Brotherhood,
Ed Richter
National Service/Communication
Program Director
