As co-chairman of the "Match the Money-and the Museum is Ours!" fund drive for the Museum of American Glass in West Virginia, I ask that all of our friends and clientele seriously consider supporting this important capital campaign.
The museum, located in Weston, WV, holds an impressive array of 19th and 20th century American-made glass, the collection of the National Marble Museum, the American Flint Glass Workers Union archives, glass making tools, and an extensive library of glass industry information. This group accomplishes "more with less" than any other organization that I have ever been affiliated with, and I am honored to serve on their Board of Directors.
Now an anonymous donor has stepped forward who will match every donated dollar with his own dollar, up to our $45,000 goal, which when matched, will retire the entire mortgage on the museum building and grounds. This once-in-a-lifetime offer expires April 26, 2010, so time is of the essence. Any and all donations are greatly appreciated. How you can donate
Thank you for your consideration. -Jeff
