THE NADER-LIKE group is primarily student funded and controlled, but responds to the concerns of students and other citizens alike. There are PIRG’s in over 25 other states with full-time professional staffs working for progressive social change. TexPIRG has worked for YOU, and all Texas citizens, throughout the last year NOW we need your help. SURVIVAL funds are needed because, as might be expected, Boards of Regents around the state have delayed student attempts to collect funds at their schools. NEXT YEAR, TexPIRG will finally have a stable source of student funding, but to keep going until then we must raise $3000. PUBLICATION is pending, held up because of funding, on major reports of concern to all Texans. Issues such as the need reform of Child Care Facilities and Reform Schools and better Health Care Delivery systems are lying dormant because TexPIRG does not have the resources to pass on needed information to the people, or to continue its lobbying efforts to force government response. THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO HELP TexPIRG THROUGH ITS FINANCIAL CRISIS! YOUR $10 OR $20 OR WHATEVER YOU CAN AFFORD WILL SAVE A VIABLE FORCE FOR SOCIAL CHANGE IN TEXAS.
