CAN WE CONTACT YOU?

In 1876 a Western Union internal memo stated, "This 'telephone' has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us."

I think we can all agree that the writer of this memo was not much of a visionary. In 2004, the communications world has evolved even further and many people communicate primarily by email. The Eldercare Foundation would like to know how you feel about receiving information from us through electronic media. Electronic communication can be efficient and inexpensive and thus is an attractive option for many non-profits. Currently, the Eldercare Foundation responds to emails sent to us, but we have not yet used email to send out our newsletters, appeals or invitations to events. To help us plan for the future, we would appreciate some feedback from you.
