Carlsbad High School Post Card Campaign |

After hearing Senator Barbara Boxer of
California was seriously considering sponsoring the Department of Peace
bill in the Senate, Carlsbad High School students decided to launch a
postcard campaign to show Sen. Boxer that California constituents want
to see the bill in the Senate.
The Carlsbad SPA committed to sending
500 postcards, a goal they quickly met and exceeded by visiting
classrooms, going door to door, and presenting the Department of Peace
to their coworkers and families. SPA students committed to a minimum
of 10 cards each, while a few devoted members worked tirelessly to
secure hundreds of cards through grassroots activism. The campaign was
a great success, resulting in the education of hundreds of San Diego
constituents about the bill, and well over 500 postcards sent to
Senator Boxer.
