    • Forests: A Book of Hours, by Doug Quin

We would like to know who you are; when you fill out the contact fields at the Paypal site, please consider sharing your email and mailing address (we never share either).

The Board of Directors of AEI has set a target of finding 5-10 individuals or family foundations that could commit $5-10,000 per year for our first phase, with a goal of raising $50,000 per year.  We think this is a fairly modest target, and a worthy investment given the ways our work feeds into the larger projects of other organizations. If you know folks who might like to be part of this core circle of support, your introduction would be most welcome.
