Thank you for your patience as we have pulled together this information. 
  
Hello Everyone, 
  
I have attached the letter to the donors that has been legally approved and a memo of operations moving forward. 
I ask for approval on both by June 25th mid day if possible. 
If you have any questions I can walk you through any of these items. 
  
The letter is short but contains the 3 main points: the work that FFA has done, the decision to disband , and the message that these organizations still need support in the progressive communtiy.  The legal reccomendation is to not name Obama in the letter and to keep the length of the letter to these items so we are not opening ourselves up to any legal complications with our last communication as FFA. 
  
A reccomendation to also NOT send a seperate press statement but to realize that this letter will eventually be public and can serve as the public announcement. 
  
The memo serves as the logistical steps necessary to suspend the operation.  I ask you pay careful attention to the reimbursements of Bonner and Frank Smith as there are different options to consider. 
  
Please contact me and let me know, I am looking forward to your guidance on these next steps. 
  
Amy
