Purchase Musical Equipment, help support Shaleshock

The owner of an acoustic/electric mini grand piano and a Fender Telecaster is selling them and generously donating part of the proceeds to Shaleshock – check them out and get some holiday shopping done while also make a contribution to an important cause!

Help Shaleshock reach your neighbors!

A 10-day radio ad blitz has been initiated on three Cayuga Radio stations directing listeners to learn more about gas drilling by going to the Shaleshock website. Lawn signs with the same directive will be available to people who live in highly trafficked areas. Similar publicity for our cause is being planned but these efforts require money. Please send donations to Social Ventures, 124 Westfield Drive, Ithaca, NY 14850. Please list “Shaleshock radio ads/lawn signs” in the memo line on your check. More ways to support Shaleshock »

Support Shaleshock by sponsoring our office for a month!

Shaleshock has an office/resource center in downtown Ithaca, which brings many benefits. Besides a place to compile resources and outreach materials, we have access to the space for meetings, a convenient tabling location on the Commons, and access to affordable photo copies.

Please support the Shaleshock office by sponsoring a month. We’re asking individuals or households to donate $63 (or more) to cover 1 month’s rent. If 12 people donate, that’s a whole year. If 24 donate, that’s 2 years’ rent!

Bring cash or check to the Shaleshock meeting this Thursday 8/27 at 6pm, or mail to:

Shaleshock Citizen’s Action Alliance
115 E. Martin Luther King st.
Ithaca, NY 14850

Checks can be made out to Ryan Clover-Owens (Shaleshock Office Point Person)
