OK......yes we do need money to operate. We do have expenses that are larger than my paycheck from my day job! And we have some programming work to do to keep up with the assigning of email addresses. If anyone wants to help with their skill set in this area....you are welcome. Also for your local officers to cover some of their costs associated with holding picnics or field trips for the group.....we are accepting donations. If you feel like donating to the organization, send an email to: donations@2an.org and we will be glad to get you pointed in the right direction.
