Dear Fellow Introvert Lover,

We are writing today to ask for your assistance in expanding our Introvert Rescue Park. We have appreciated your generous support in the past, and your continued donations allow us to carry on our mission of saving introverts from shockingly uncomfortable social situations. Introverts like Tom.

Tom, 36, a chemical engineer from Sioux City, was at work designing better water-proof paint for commercial fishing vessels when he received an email titled, “Mandatory Team-Building Awesome-Fest!” Tom snagged a seat in the back row, intending to keep a low profile before getting back to his polymers. But then, disaster struck. The guest speaker, someone called Becki with an I, grinned an unhinged smile, pointed right at Tom, and said, “We’re going to kick things off with an icebreaker game! This guy’s gonna tell us the wackiest thing he wore in high school!”

Tom’s story is unconscionable, but sadly, he’s just one of many introverts who need your help. Stacey, 27, another introvert now in our care, has an equally harrowing story. Stacey was an idealistic new homeowner who made the fateful choice to volunteer as treasurer of her HOA. What seemed like an opportunity to get more experience with finance…
