September 2017

Michael Walsh and I set our goal at $10,000.00.

It has been nearly a three-year journey from publication to the fulfillment of our goal. By 2016 the Neuron Mirror outreach had raised in sales of the poetry book and small donations over $8,000.00 for the Lustgarten Foundation. Then a donation of $1,000.00 to the Lustgarten Foundation from a poet friend and his wife, inspired by the accomplishment of the Neuron Mirror outreach, increased the money raised to over $9,000.00. A friend on Shelter Island, who had bought Neuron Mirror in the past, surprised me with a donation of $400.00.

Finally, a poetry contest to benefit the Lustgarten Foundation, publicized on the Lustgarten Foundation site, raised $805.00, bringing the present total to $10,300.00. Michael would be pleased. So, too, the five people who are on the dedication page of Neuron Mirror: Helen Shields, my mother, and four poets: Robert Long, Siv Cedering, Diana Chang, and Antje Katcher.

Best to all who have helped and may yet help,
Virginia Walker
