How exciting to hear about the generous contribution in honor of Marge's 
85th birthday. Marge will be a great steward of the gift.

  Marge's 85th birthday party was held today at 4750 with many people in 
attendance. A donor, who wishes to remain anonymous, sent a contribution 
to ICA-USA for $8,500 (eight thousand five hundred dollars) with some 
specific instructions. To celebrate her eighty-fifth year, Marge is to 
designate portions of this $8,500 contribution, in amounts as she sees 
fit, to the seven major current program areas at ICA-USA. These are:

- GreenRise Uptown for creating a green culture within the largest 
nonprofit service center in the Midwest;
-   Resilient Communities via the “Accelerate 77” program in Chicago 
neighborhoods;
-    Service Learning for leadership development with university 
students;
-    Learning Basket for early childhood education and family literacy;
- International Initiatives in support of “peer-to-peer” work with other 
national ICAs;
-  Global Archives for preserving and passing-on ICA wisdom to future 
generations;
- Technology of Participation (ToP).
