We understand you may be very uncomfortable with the idea of fundraising. This message is an attempt to make it relatively painless. You do not need to personally request donations if that makes you uncomfortable. You do not need to have contacts who can make a major donation (but if you do, great!).
YOU CAN, regardless, make a financial contribution.
Think of it this way - if 100 of us each gets 10 people to donate $25 each, JMA will raise $25,000.
