Some of our colleagues say the link from FB does work (but not the experience of everyone). If you want to donate to PfOL PAC in 2023, here is a summary of suggestions so far:</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><br>1) For those of us who eschew FB or for whom the FB donation link fails: Send a check payable to “People for Oregon’s Libraries” and mail it to Tess Milio, the OLA Lobbyist at:<br>People for Oregon Libraries PAC<br>P.O. Box 42307<br>Portland, OR 97242<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">2) You can link to the PfOL FB link from the homepage: People for Oregon Libraries PAC: <a href="https://pfolpac.weebly.com/" target="_blank">https://pfolpac.weebly.com/</a><br><br>3) Or link directly to PfOL PAC FB page: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PeopleforOregonLibrariesPAC" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/PeopleforOregonLibrariesPAC</a><br><br>4) Maybe this direct(ish) donation link works for you, but I got a 404 screen (when tried from outside FB):<br>“I just tested the QR code on the Facebook page and it is working.
