Wrapping Up 2009: What Can ICAN Do For You?

Dear friend of ICAN,
As we approach the end of year, I want to invite you to become more involved with ICAN and help support our mission. We recently launched our new "What is ICAN?" video, made by one of our chapter leaders in Connecticut. You can view it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuzNZh4FPsA
This is the perfect time to make your yearly donations - remember that ICAN is a 501(c)(3) non-profit and subscriptions and donations are tax-deductible by most U.S. taxpayers. In addition to knowing that you are supporting an all-volunteer organization dedicated to improving maternal-child health, being an ICAN subscriber carries a good list of benefits:

• Free attendance at ICAN's educational webinars, including the upcoming webinar "Homebirth After Cesarean: What the Research Does and Doesn't Say" with Amy Haas on November 22nd (CEUs available)
• Quarterly newsletter, the Clarion
• Bi-weekly eNews
• Discount to the ICAN Bookstore
• Discount to ICAN's conference
• Professional Subscribers: complimentary listing on our website as part of ICAN's Professional Subscriber Network
• 5-Year, 10-Year, and Lifetime Subscribers: recognition in the Clarion

Subscribe online at www.ican-online.org/store or visit your local chapter!
If you have been thinking of other ways to give back to ICAN, we have several open volunteer positions to fill that need.  I encourage you to apply.

• Vice-President of ICAN
• Media Director
• Publications Director
• IT Coordinator
• Webinar Coordinator
• Spanish Webmaster
• Midlakes Regional Coordinator

Finally, I am proud to share with you the ICAN 2010 Calendar, which features beautiful photos of mothers, babies and families who have been touched by ICAN's work.  This colorful calendar is offered only for a limited time and makes a great gift.  You can order it  on sale now, while supplies last at www.ican-online.org/store .
We look forward to supporting you through 2010!
Warmly,
Desirre Andrews
ICAN President
