WHAT’S NEW
	ISPN Member Discussion Forum This new tool invites all participants to post comments or questions to an online bulletin board. Others can read these comments and reply to them, or post new comments or questions of their own. Unlike a listserve, this tool presents posts in "threads" that allow participants to track particular portions of the discussion and to search and find the topic that you're interested in. ** Member Section login required Click here and enter your ISPN member website login for complete information

	SUPPORT ISPN while you shop or browse online! The ISPN Foundation has established an account with iGive, an online shopping portal that will earn money for the Foundation every time you browse or shop using the iGive link http://www.iGive.com/ISP-MHNF . When you shop online with any of over 700 stores, up to 26% of your purchase price will be donated to the ISPN Foundation. Many of the stores also have special coupon deals just for iGive users. All you have to do is go to the link above and sign in as a participant. If you download the toolbar to your homepage, it will give you a very convenient reminder to use the portal for all your shopping and browsing. An added bonus! If you make your first purchase within 45 days of joining iGive, the Foundation will automatically get a $5 bonus donation. Signing up is quick and very user-friendly. It only takes a minute. We have carefully researched this method of fund-raising and discovered that hundreds of organizations have successfully used this method of raising extra funds. We hope that you will support the ISPN Foundation by signing up and using iGive. Download this info in PDF format.
