New Phase of DVD Plan!
Update: The sooner we get each set into the library, the more people can check it out before the premiere. Let's keep our momentum!
Hey Guys! We're starting a new wave of DVD donations, and could use some volunteers. We are now going to be targeting markets that did not have UPN, but will have the CW (Updated with new cities: Volunteers Needed).
This is the list of CW affiliates in markets currently without UPN. I've added some, so if you can make some confirmation calls, just find one that says "Needs Contact Volunteer" and give them a call! They are listed in declining size of Nielsen Market, for the curious. If you have an addition, or can volunteer to contact one of these libraries ASAP and confim they would accept and shelve VM, please let us know!
Once again, if you have any questions, contact me at mollypick@gmail.com. Also, please make sure to get a shipping address and contact name, and send that to me for our list.
