Issue 1095: December 18, 2013 Top Stories We are moved by your support! After 20 years at the corner of Selby and Snelling in St. Paul, Minnesota, our building is being razed to make way for redevelopment. As a result, we have a six-month window to find new office space for carrying on our work supporting the nation’s immunization healthcare professionals. And that’s where we hope you come in. We need to raise $50,000 to offset the costs of moving and the increased rents we are facing. We have been so fortunate to have had no raise in our rent for the last ten years, resulting in savings that we have converted into expanded services and products. Simply visit www.immunize.org/support and select an amount. A contribution of $50, $100, or $250 would be of tremendous help but, of course, any amount is deeply appreciated. Rest assured that while we are moving OUT, we will also be moving UP with continuing development of powerful resources aimed at increasing immunization rates across the age span. Contributions to IAC, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. Ways to Donate
