We Have a Serious Shortfall on Funding
The money to run the organization is just not coming in as it is needed. We are doing what we can, but donations are simply too few and too small overall.
A large part of this is the huge disparity between the numbers of those who come and those that donate. The ratio is in the range of 1000 to 1 at this point.
We are coming to a crossroads.
