Hello,

We are a group of artists living in Illinois who are starting a project to try to get each prisoner at Tamms C-MAX a free magazine subscription. The initiative is called Supermax Subscriptions. We will ask people on the outside to get you subscriptions, not with cash, but by using their extra airline "Frequent Flyer Miles" toward purchasing a magazine. 

Here's how it will work: airline travelers often have “frequent flyer” accounts with particular airlines like Delta and American. They accumulate "airline miles" each time they travel—one mile for every mile they fly. If a person accumulates enough of these miles, they can cash them in and get a free plane ticket. Or, with fewer miles, the traveler can purchase magazine subscriptions through a program that the airline offers. Many miles expire and go unused.

We have created a website page that tells people how to participate. Its address, in case you’d like to share it with others, is:

www.temporaryservices.org/supsub.html

In order to try to get you a free magazine subscription, we need your permission to give your name and number to people that want to participate. They will need this to order a subscription for you from their airline miles account. Also, we need to know your magazine preferences. Please select a few magazines from the list on the reverse of this letter and let us know your order of preference.

It is important to note this is not a promise that someone will fill your request, but we will try to get as many requests filled as we can. Our goal is to send at least one subscription to each of you at Tamms C-MAX. 

If you to would like to participate in this, mail your magazine requests to:

Temporary Services, P.O. Box 121012, Chicago, IL 60612

Please note that this address is only for telling us if you’d like to participate in Supermax Subscriptions and not for other requests. 

Thank you for reading,

Tamms Poetry Committee, Temporary Services (Brett Bloom, Marc Fischer, and Salem Collo-Julin) Sarah Ross, and friends of Supermax Subscriptions.
