Dear Friends, Family and Fellow New Mexicans,

As last year was winding down and I was making my donations to the organizations and causes that matter to me most, I came across an exciting article in the NYT that really caught my imagination:  Two "regular" New Yorkers raised $12,500 and by working with a medical debt relief non-profit, RIP Medical debt, they were able to eliminate (retire) $1.25 MILLION in medical debt for some of their fellow New Yorkers most in need of assistance!  I was amazed at the prospect of having such an outsized impact in the lives of people struggling under crushing medical debt and wondered what might be done here locally.

When I reached out to the RIP Medical Debt" to see what might be possible for New Mexico, I found out that they currently have the capacity to retire a portfolio of at least 1.5 MILLION and possibly as much as 2 MILLION in New Mexico debt by raising $15,000-$20,000.  Also, they also let me know that two other New Mexicans, Rachel, from Santa Fe and Lauris, from Albquerque, were interested in partnering with me so our triad, "Tres Mujeres" was formed and our campaign launched! 

Please join our "Viva New Mexico Debt Relief Campaign" and watch your $100 tax-deductible donation have a $10,000 impact!  Or better yet, where else can a $500 donation have a $50,000 impact?  Intrigued? Please take 5 minutes to click on the link below to see for yourself what is possible for New Mexico with a grassroots campaign such as ours! Thanks for your interest!  Please scroll down to the red "Donate Now" button at the bottom of this page to donate and even best, donate and then share on your FB page! 

THANKS so much and Viva New Mexico!
