Dear Friends of Vidiots,

Last year around this time we reached out, and since so many of you have kindly asked, we want to update you.

Our latest and most exciting news is the establishment of The Vidiots Foundation,

a non‐profit entity whose mission is to preserve, protect and promote film through education and exposition. The Foundation will enable Vidiots to do more free community events, help protect our unique and valuable film library, and ultimately continue to survive.

We will be holding an online auction to raise funds for The Vidiots Foundation on charitybuzz.com. Do you know a producer who’s willing to hear a pitch or have some extra tickets to a film premiere? Can you arrange a one-on-one meet and greet with a celebrity or a film set visit?  Do you have any connections for VIP seats to a live show, or a walk on role in a TV or film? Do you know of any exciting internship opportunity? Any in person experience you can dream up, we’d love to hear from you. If you have any item, service or experience to donate we would be thrilled. Please fill out the attached form, scan and email it to june.stoddard@gmail.com or mail it to Vidiots Foundation, 302 Pico Blvd, Santa Monica, Ca 90405 or fax it to 310-392-0099. You can call us at 310-392-8508 or June Stoddard at 310-396-0283, who will be running the auction, with any questions.

Help The Vidiots Foundation grow and thrive by:

ü  Donating to our upcoming online auction on charitybuzz.com (see above)

ü  Make a tax-free charitable donation at vidiotsfoundation.org

It’s been a difficult year, but in the midst of Rocket Video and Blockbuster closings,

we have survived! Help support us by renting, buying, donating a used DVD or just spreading the word.

If you’re reading this, we know you share not only a love of film, but of film-loving people.  We want to keep being that place where movie lovers can gather, linger, and dream. Please partner with us so we can.
