It is our understanding that the Commission is the only body with the proper authority to grant us a waiver of the rental fee at the Center. Pending your final approval, the Center has been tentatively reserved for a fund raising event for Sunday, November 19 from 3:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. to hold "Tarde de Estrellas." This event will consist of a variety show of Latin stars who will donate their time and services for the benefit of "Jerry's kids". We plan to have an admission charge which will be our only source of income on this event. For your information, the tickets will be a donation and, therefore, tax deductible. We certainly appreciate whatever can be done to help us in the fight against neuromuscular diseases. It is through the efforts of people like you that we work to bring hope and a cure to those afflicted with muscular dystrophy. IIG/mm P.S. Enclosed please find our 1977 Annual Report to inform you on the programs and services of the Muscular Dystrophy Association. ) 1 ( 6 v . 11.AP k l e• • Si cerely, '1" Ileana I.
