[[boxed text]] A SPECIAL MESSAGE All of the services provided by the Moton Institute to black colleges are geared to strengthen their independence. For example through CEFP, colleges receive income to offset the reduction of public funds on which there has been strong reliance. Despite the fact that public funds through Title III have been cut, the need for technical services to the colleges today is greater than ever. We invite you to help the Moton Institute expand its effort to fulfill this need. Your tax-exempt gift, payable to the Moton Institute, will assist us greatly in this effort. Your contribution, large or small, should be sent to P.O. Box 1070, Gloucester, Virginia, 23061. [[/boxed text]]
