Why You Won’t Find NMG in Your Mailbox This Month

Dear Members,

You’re the first to hear that New Moon Girls is making exciting changes. You know how we value and listen to every individual girl and adult. Our members support and help each other. More than anything, you’re part of our special place that is much more than the magazine we started in 1992. Because of you, we’re a community that gives girls confidence to be themselves and go for their dreams.

We’re adding new opportunities, growing our community, and helping more girls join. Plus we need to make NMG more sustainable in terms of our environmental impact and our finances. I want you know about the changes and why we’re making them.

Now we’re asking you to support NMG more than ever and do your part keep our unique community alive! Since the recession, we haven’t gotten the number of members we need to keep our community financially healthy. We’re very thrifty but it still takes a lot of money and resources to make the magazine & social network and get them to you.

Our first change is adding an E-magazine to your membership choices. You can read it, click on the links and get connected even more easily than with the paper magazine. It works on all kinds of computers + iPads and other tablets.

Our July-August issue is exclusively the e-magazine to experiment with how it saves paper, ink & fossil fuels for mailing & delivery. We think you’ll like it and hope you’ll switch to getting the e-magazine instead of paper to help our environment and NMG. To thank you for trying it we’re adding 2 more months on to your current membership. Email membership@newmoon.com to switch to the e-magazine for all future issues.

Even non-members can try it out until August 31. If you haven’t seen our magazine lately this is your chance to see how we’ve been improving. And you can share it with your friends so they can enjoy it, too.

Now to Your Part:

We need only 30 new or renewed members a day to cover all the costs and sustain NMG financially. A full membership costs less than 15 cents per day! Is it worth that to you?

Here are some simple ways you can sustain NMG. You might think it would take a lot of time or money, or things you don’t have. But it’s easy for you to help, and every bit you do counts!

1. Each One Reach One:With our current members and friends, we can easily get the members we need.You just need to get ONE friend to join or give ONE gift of membership during the month of July or August.
2. Sponsor A Membership for your school, library, a club or organization you belong to. It’s quick & really easy – plus you feel great helping girls who don’t get NMG on their own.
3. Start the Conversation Sometimes it can be hard to know how to tell a friend about buying something you really believe in, like NMG.
4. Use this Email example Email is great to share and spread the word—especially to adults, family and community members you know! Get ideas from this email or use it as it is to let friends and family know about us and how they can support NMG.
5. Give Out & Put Up Posters Do you want more people to know about NMG? It’s fun to spread the word with these girl created posters. You can even make your own.
