Subject: Valley Folk, Thistle and Shamrock and Afropop Worldwide

There is a rumor circulating that you are planning to eliminate Valley Folk,
Thistle and Shamrock and/or Afropop Worldwide. Are you planning or even
thinking about doing any of these things? If so, I am a high-donor (dollar a
day) and have been for many years and would stop donating. If not, please
clarify.
Thank you.
