Dear Fellow Transhumanists

It gives me great pleasure to announce the results of our Matching Grant
Fund Drive, which ended on February 2nd, 2008.

We received 165 donations, totaling $20,868.00 in cash. However, Dan
Stoicescu not only donated $1,000 in cash, but pledged another $11,000
over the course of the year . Pledges to be paid throughout the year
came to an additional $11,329, with a total amount raised for the Fund
Drive of $32,197.00!

Our Matching Grant donors, Bill Faloon of the Life Extension Foundation,
and Brian Cartmell, of Cartmell Holdings, further agreed that they would
increase the amount of their matching grant to cover the entire amount
of money raised! That now gives the World Transhumanist Association a
total working budget for 2008 of nearly $65,000! Thank you Bill, Brian,
and Dan for your tremendous generosity!

On behalf of all of the Board Members of the WTA, I want to again thank
all of you for your contributions and support of our organization. We
have a lot of great plans for 2008, and can't wait to get things
rolling.

Best wishes,

James Clement
Executive Director
World Transhumanist Association
