Please support Big Shoulders Fund

Here is an awesome letter that I received from John Moran at Big Shoulders Fund this morning.  They are doing incredible things for the children in the neediest areas of Chicago.  They deserve your support too!

Robert,

 

I wanted to thank you on behalf of the Big Shoulders Fund for ETRN’s continued support of our mission to help inner-city families have a great educational alternative for their children via Chicago’s Catholic schools.  While the real action happens at the schools and with families, the ability for the Big Shoulders Fund to conduct business via the e-mail services you so generously provide us is a big deal in our fundraising and program efforts.

 

If you’d like to put a face and an impact on the impact of what you do for us, let me suggest that 5-10 minutes of your time spent at http://academystbenedict.org/ would be good.  There are two short videos there – one is a Big Shoulders video that describes the tangible impact of the schools and programs we support, while the other is a video that we helped to produce for the purpose of recruiting and that would put a face on our mission.  Beyond simply thanking you (via your own e-mail services!), introducing you to our mission this way might be the best thanks we can provide.

 

Thank you again!

Q: What is the maximum e-mail attachment size?

A: The ETRN.com e-mail servers do not limit the size of individual e-mail attachments. The ETRN.com e-mail servers do impose a 400 MB maximum total message size limit. Individual customers can choose a smaller message size limit. We can also customize the handling of "over-sized" e-mails. Please contact us to discuss your specific needs. A couple of important facts:

1. Attachments are typically encoded in what is called Base64[1]. As a result, the actual length of MIME-compliant Base64-encoded binary data is usually about 137% of the original file size.

2. E-mails often contain both plain text and HTML components. This also increases the overall size of the e-mail.
