Our campaign is strong and vital. We are
becoming part of the national dialogue through NPR, Op-Eds in major newspapers,
letters to the editor, radio interviews, and presentations at conferences,
events and meetings. As people hear about this legislation and the field
of peacebuilding from our grassroots supporters working around the country,
they become excited and involved. The pace of our
growth is quickening,
which is indeed good news.
Our mission and purpose are deepening as well. We realize this is more
than just a campaign; it is truly a movement. Our work is to make the
practical programs and principles of peace the bedrock of our national
investment. We continue to anchor the realization that we are taking
the long view and playing a vital role in the very shifting of our culture
from one of violence to one of peace.
And we need your help. With our swift growth comes not only excitement,
but also a real need for stepped up resources. If you can afford to send
even $10 today please do so. This may be the best
$10 investment you ever make.
Your $10 will support:
- The Student Peace Alliance as they open chapters
on campuses throughout the country and plan an organizing retreat for
their first national conference.
- Our growth through our Washington, DC, office as two national staffers move to DC to make
that a vibrant part of our work.
- More than 50 State
Coordinators in coming together for a national strategy and
training session.
- Grassroots activism in all 50 states during
a critical election year cycle, providing materials, speakers, training,
DVDs, research and so much more.
We must continue to step up our game to maintain our
momentum as a world-class effort and leader in this field.
If
every person in our network gave just $10, we would raise nearly $500,000!
Imagine
the impact of this collective contribution. And imagine the ripple effect
if each of us enrolled one or two more people in also sending just $10—less
than the cost of the average trip to the movies. The potential of such
a small individual investment reminds us that collectively, we make a
difference exponentially greater than what any one of us could do alone.
