Dearest Vanessa fans and visitors of "Planet Vanessa"
Due to big health and resulting financial problems I have to ask fans and friendly visitors to make a donation because I don´t know how much longer I can keep paying for server costs of $50+ every year. Every dollar can help me right now, but those who donate at least $20 will receive from me Vanessa´s Rarest Songs 2CD set for FREE ( THE SONGLIST ). After you have done the donation, just send me an EMAIL with your shipping address and you will receive the CDs FREE from any charges via airmail to any place you live.
Many thanks in advance to
everyone
