On Thanksgiving day last year, Mark Shull, a longtime Snuggles member, passed of a heart attack. We’ve been throwing around various ways of creating a memorial for him. One suggestion was to donate educational materials related to Jamming, Media and Intellectual Property to educational institutions and libraries annually. We decided it would be fitting that the first year’s gift be Sonic Outlaws — a film he (we) admired greatly. The publishers of Sonic Outlaws, OtherCinemaDVD, have graciously offered to provide us institutional copies of the film at a greatly reduced rate. We’re asking the public to help us raise money so that we may purchase as many copies as possible. These will be distributed to low-income, low resource educational institutions and libraries. The selection process is determined by the members of Snuggles. As soon as we’ve determined how many copies we can purchase, we’ll complete the selection process and post a list of the selected institutions.
We’ve set a goal of $500. Currently, we’re received $283 in contributions. That leaves $217 remaining.
Please contribute so that we can make a positive difference in Media Literacy.
I kicked in. Can you? Go here to donate.
