[City Within] Your Super 8mm Camera Greatly Appreciated

City Within has benefited from plenty of good will. The offers of expertise and services have been humbling. Thank you.

So we're OK sharing this request for Super 8mm cameras - we're trying Craigslist. Here's how the ad reads:

City Within - a project of the Vancouver Social Enterprise Forum - is looking
for donations of functional super 8 mm cameras. Your camera will be part of a
community dialogue project that we hope will capture the transformative power
of art.

Thank you for looking in your attics, basements, and spare rooms for those old
cameras.

Feel free to reply to this post if you have questions.

Thank you

Simple. To the point. We'll let you know when we're get a reply.
