SENS Donations
Aubrey De Grey sent a message to the members of Ending aging: SENS, SENS
Foundation, Aubrey de Grey.
--------------------
Subject: Please join a SENS-focused Facebook cause
Hi everyone,
I'd like to invite you to join a Facebook cause which has the potential
to raise as much as 1.5 million dollars for SENS
research. The link to the cause is:
http://www.facebook.com/l/6a1ef;www.causes.com/defeataging
As some of you will already be aware, this cause was set up a few months
ago by some of our supporters. Since then it has attracted over 1000
members. The basis of the cause is very simple: Once this cause reaches
10,000 members, every member will donate $100 to SENS Foundation, for a
total of 1 million. In other words, your individual $100 donation will
be multiplied by 10,000. What's more, you won't be asked to donate a
cent until the total is reached, so you will know that your contribution
is making a BIG difference.
Additionally, up until December 31st, Peter Thiel of Clarium Capital
will be matching every donation to the SENS Foundation by a further
fifty percent. This will include donations made via this cause page,
meaning the group has the potential to raise a full amount of 1.5
million dollars to be put towards the defeat of age-related ill-health.
To capitalise on this extremely generous offer, we are attempting to
reach our total membership before the end of the year. We think we can
do it - with your help!
That link again: http://www.facebook.com/l/6a1ef;www.causes.com/defeataging
So, please join and invite your friends as well. Remember, in addition
to the funds we will raise, the publicity this group will generate when
we are successful will be enormously beneficial to the Foundation's
mission. You won't just be contributing financially - you will be using
your voice. Together, we can put an end to the disabilities and diseases
of aging!
One more time: http://www.facebook.com/l/6a1ef;www.causes.com/defeataging
Thanks so much in advance!
Cheers, Aubrey

Just more tax-relief crooks - it's the NHS that needs funding.

Not if you want to live considerably longer than normal Human lifespan.
Besides, it may be a UK initiative but SENS is an international org.

Charities are poor people in rich countries giving money to rich people in
poor countries.

Why don't you find out what SENS is about before jumping to conclusions?

I never jump to conclusions and I don't trust ANY
charities since 90% of them act like multinationals
such as for ex the NSPCC and their obscene advertising
which should be banned. I am all for "regenerative medicine solutions to the
disabilities and diseases of aging"
and even think it's more than absolutely vital , but it's the STATE
who is responsible for advancing research and it's the STATE
who should be financing such initiatives.

The STATE does not want to make people live longer - it's inconvenient
and expensive and it fucks up pension plans.
