'tis the season for giving 
With thousands of more users taking advantage of GNOME at Brazilian telecentros

Foundation. You can help underwrite the foundation's activities bringing GNOME 
to the developing world and subsidizing developers and students participation 
at GUADEC and the Summit in 2004. 
GNOME Foundation has been granted tax exempt status by the U.S. Internal 
Revenue Service. This means that all contributions to the foundation are now 
tax-deductible in the U.S. 
Contributions can be made on-line, via PayPal, or by check. Visit: 
http://www.gnome.org/friends/> for details. 
*Remember, to qualify for a charitable tax deduction in 2002, you must make 
your donation by December 31st.* Every donation is important.
