bravecows mentioned this a while back, but it's also in the Discworld Monthly, today, which reminded me that I had forgotten to pass it on...)
In the unlikely event that you missed the news this month, Terry has
personally donated 1 million USD to Alzheimers Research UK. More
information about this is included in the news section.
Various fans felt it would be good to "Match it for Pratchett", so
if you wish to make a small donation why don't we see if we can
(collectively) match Terry's contribution.
Terry has asked that if you want to donate to Alzheimers Research
UK, please donate direct to the charity (not via some of the
websites that have popped up claiming to offer this service) if for
no other reason than that by donating direct to the charity you can
guarantee that 100% of your money gets to them.
The other advantage of donating direct is that if you are a UK tax
payer you can claim Gift Aid on your donation and the government
will pay the charity an extra percentage based on what you donate.
To make a donation visit http://www.alzheimers-research.org.uk/ and
please remember to mention "Terry Pratchett" in the notes section.
