Great comments, Darylen. Indeed, COE has saved many a neck. Without them.... I think you only need to go to COE's site to find the donate button in the upper right (http://www.coenet.org/), but this is the direct address: https://www.coenet.us/coe_prod_imis/COE/My_Account_COE/Donate_to_COE/iMIS/Fundraising/GiveNow.aspx?hkey=eecdfda4-9f46-4983-93e4-1b6171d4f0de I'll be glad to give again. --Alan Alan Parks On Thu, Jun 1, 2017 at 12:57 PM, - MEEOA-L - Maine Educational Opportunity Association members communication <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > I'm willing to donate again.
