Imbued with the idealism that has always energized us, we launched Encore — to enthusiastic acclaim. We asked you to "Come Join Us!" in this new venture, and indeed you have. From the very first, the response has been overwhelming. In traditional, heartwarming PCV fashion, you have stepped up to the plate in practically every way imaginable:

• "How can I help?"
• "What can we do?"
• "Please, come on down and tell us about Encore"
• "Could you use some computer help?"
• "I wish we could send more but hope this will help."
• "When can we go?"

We can't tell you how much your enthusiastic encouragement, countless volunteer hours and generous financial contributions have reinforced our belief in our mantra that "Once a Peace Corps Volunteer, always a Peace Corps Volunteer!"  Thank you.
