IT'S TIME TO PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR HISTORY IS… "The White Crane Institute and its numerous projects like White Crane Journal, Daily GayWisdom: This Day In Gay History and White Crane Books have provided for me an amazing centering experience about what it means to be a part of the gay tribe in these trying times, when my very existence and depth have been reduced by the commercialized "gay world" to just another "consumer choice." White Crane is about the genuine fullness of us, in an increasingly bland and corporatized daily environment. It is about our often secret, and incredibly beautiful past and the real excitement of our future. We need to support WCI the way we support other vital resources in our lives, and keep it going, growing, and alive. I can't see any other way to live." ~ Perry Brass, author of How to Survive Your Own Gay Life ,The Manly Art of Seduction, King of Angels, and many other books. 2017 is almost over and it’s time to think about support for GayWisdom for your year-end charitable giving. White Crane Institute is possible because of your financial assistance. Our operating needs are relatively small, but they are persistent. Web maintenance costs, electricity, phones, postage. The one computer on which all of this is stored recently crashed and burned. Recovery was expensive. Replacement was expensive. I cover these expenses personally and help is appreciated. We now have the funds to bring Arthur Evans’ landmark Witchcraft and the Gay Counterculture to print again, with the addition of his follow-up to that work, Moon Lady Rising. 2018 marks the 40th anniversary of the original Witchcraft and we will be offering the new edition in honor of that milestone. Even if you already own this seminal book you will want a copy of this Special Edition. Arthur's birthday was in October, so we will have it available by that time. So in the spirit of asking for what we need, we are again asking that you consider making a contribution now. $20.00, $50.00, $100, or $1000…every donation helps. We continue to not accept advertising money because we respect Gay men as something more than a mere marketing niche. We need a little from you. And as always it is tax deductible. We're a 501(c)3) educational corporation. Many of you have been consistently generous and we thank you. For White Crane Institute, for Daily GayWisdom and for White Crane Books your support is essential. Please visit our website, www.whitecraneinstitute.org and contribute using the NYCharities.com link you will find there. Checks can be sent to: White Crane Institute We thank you in advance. |8|O|8|O|8|O|8|O|8|O|8|O|8|O|8| Gay Wisdom for Daily Living from White Crane Institute "With the increasing commodification of gay news, views, and culture by powerful corporate interests, having a strong independent voice in our community is all the more important. White Crane is one of the last brave standouts in this bland new world... a triumph over the looming mediocrity of the mainstream Gay world." - Mark Thompson Exploring Gay Wisdom & Culture since 1989! |8|O|8|O|8|O|8|O|8|O|8|O|8|O|8| | ||||
