RE: Announcement and Urgent Help Needed For Life Skills International
Life Skills International is pleased to announce the unveiling of our newly designed website! When you
visit www.LifeSkillsIntl.org, you will embark on a rich, multi-media presentation of who we are and what
we do. More information will be made available than ever before for hurting people looking for answers
and help. We will also have high-definition programming, interviews, testimonies, and other video to click
on to reach people in many different ways. Please visit our website soon and check out the new format and
content. We hope you will be pleased!
Never before in the 27-year history of Life Skills International have we sent out a mailing asking for
financial support; however, an unforeseen need has arisen and we are trusting our faithful God to provide in
this lean economy.
As you may already know, we have been in our current building in Aurora, Colorado, for over ten years.
This two-story building is over 45 years old and has a cooling/heating tower on the roof that is the original.
Over the years, we have repaired and bandaged the system in the hope of keeping it running through cold
winters and warm summers. Unfortunately, the tower is beyond repair and must be replaced at a
considerable expense to LSI. The building is entirely sealed, so opening windows is not an option. We are
currently using floor fans to maintain comfort, but our clients and staff remain extremely uncomfortable.
In addition, the new high-definition requirements for television production have been an extreme financial
burden to Life Skills, and a balloon payment of $30,000 for the upgraded equipment is due by the end of
June. If you have had the opportunity to watch The New You, God’s Way, you will see the new format is
of the highest quality. It is our desire to continue production of our programming so we can reach as many
as possible with our message of hope to the hurting.
We are asking for your financial support to purchase a new cooling/heating tower for our building, and to
pay the balloon payment for the television equipment at the end of June. The total amount we hope to raise
is in excess of $55,000. Your tax-deductible donation can be in the form of cash, a check, or a credit card.
Any amount is greatly appreciated. We are asking that you make your donation by June 15, 2009. Please
complete the form below and send in with your cash or check. To donate by credit card, please call Traci at
1-888-HURTING, or you may send your check payable to Life Skills International to:
Life Skills International
651 Chambers Road, #203
Aurora, CO 80011
Please partner with us and prayerfully consider how you can help meet this urgent need. We appreciate
your faithfulness and support as we continue to reach out to the hurting and hopeless.

reap generously. Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under
compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
