My dear friends & family who care for the welfare of your fellow Americans in need,

I have a specific point to share with you and it won’t take even a minute of your time. Thank you in advance if you decide to continue.

Please, please assist the non-readers when they appear in your orbit. They often suffer in prideful silence.
