Dear Pandora Listener -

Thanks very much for taking the time to visit our newly launched philanthropy project.

One of the most important founding principles of Pandora is a respect for music and for those who create it. It has long been our desire to support the music community and to be actively involved in music-related causes. Music has a long history as both an effective agent of social change, as well as a powerfully transformative art for individuals.

We're very pleased to begin this mission through our partnership with GlobalGiving. We hope you will join us in supporting these worthy causes. We have carefully chosen organizations with a broad reach, and a proven history of effective action.

To help get things going, our investors have generously contributed a matching fund of $9,500. So the first $9,500 worth of listener contributions will be matched with an equal grant from the fund.

Pandora will always strive to share any good fortune that comes our way, with those in need. An ongoing support of music programs is a wonderful way to do this. We hope you agree.

Thanks again.

Cheers.

Tim Westergren
Founder
