2) SEND A CHECK

Please make it payable to Lyme Disease Association and mail to:

Lyme Disease Association, PO Box 1438 Jackson, NJ 08527.

Because space at Ms. Tan’s home is limited, confirmations will be issued first-come, first-served, based on the date check is received. Paypal is faster. In the event we are full by the time we receive your check, it will be returned to you. Please remember to include your name(s), address, telephone, email, and fax, if any, with your check.

Donations to Lyme Disease Association’s Literati with Lyme are fully tax-deductible to the extent allowable by law. The non-deductible portion of each reception ticket is $18. Please inquire if your deduction is eligible for a matching gift from your employer and will go to the Lyme Disease Association to support its public education and research efforts on causes and cures of Lyme disease, including the Endowed Columbia Lyme Disease Research Center.

All donations to the Lyme Disease Association are fully tax deductible. A copy of its latest annual report may be obtained, upon request, from the organization or from the Attorney General, Charities Bureau, 120 Broadway, New York, New York 10271.
