Dear friend
As the anniversary of your membership approaches, I"d like to express a heartfelt "Thank you" from
everyone here at the National Geographic Society for your valuable support. We appreciate having you
as a member, which is why we"re asking you for help.
One of the Society"s long-standing goals is to keep membership costs as low as possible. To do this,
we ask members to post their fees early. This keeps renewal (续订) printing and postage costs down
(you save the expense of sending renewal reminders to you repeatedly and help us save paper) and allows
us to pass the savings on to you.
Member"s cooperation is why we can afford to send you 12 colorful issues of NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC
magazine at such a low price. As you know, this rate is extraordinarily low for an award-winning publication
filled from cover to cover with full-color photographs, pictures and wall maps created by our world-famous
photographers.
Plus, your fee helps enrich the world. Part of the payment I hope that you will send today helps support
the Society"s research, exploration, and educational projects around the globe. In the past ten years alone,
your Society has helped sponsor more than 2, 700 scientific and environmental researches.
And, of course, posting your fee now guarantees that you won"t miss a single issue of NATIONAL
GEOGRAPHIC magazine. I hope that you"ll commit yourself again to the pleasure that membership brings.
Thank you in advance for your early renewal. I" m looking forward to hearing from you. John Griffin President,
Publishing Department
