Dear StoryCorps Alumni, A great big thank you to goes to all of you who have already contributed to help us raise $100,000 by June 30, 2009, to Save the Mobile Tour! Thanks to individuals like you, we've raised $40,000 so far. But we have a long way to go to keep our Mobile Tour rolling to communities throughout the United States. If you haven't already, please help us save the StoryCorps Mobile Tour by donating today. A gift of any size makes a difference! Read below what some Alumni are saying about the importance of donating to StoryCorps. And help us spread the word on Facebook and Twitter, or by forwarding this message to a friend.  Warmly,
Christa Orth  Alumni Talk Back! Alumni make a huge difference through their contributions to StoryCorps. Here's what some Alumni are saying:

On the Road in Eugene 
Facilitators Carl Scott and Alex Kelly The first order of business, besides escaping three days of rain, was to interview the mother of a famous late resident of Eugene, Ken Kesey, author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. We're looking forward to reading more about the neighbors we meet and the stories we hear in Eugene and all the stops on the Mobile Tour. Keep up with the StoryCorps Facilitators on the StoryCorps Blog. You can also post comments and stories of your own StoryCorps experience! Sponsors and Partners Major funding is provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. 
StoryCorps is also made possible by generous support from the Annenberg Foundation, Atlantic Philanthropies, Ford Foundation, and the Kaplen Foundation.
StoryCorps' podcasts are supported by the Fetzer Institute as part of its Campaign for Love and Forgiveness.
StoryCorps partners with NPR and the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress.
