WELCOME TO STARVIN' FOR JUSTICE 2008
The 15th Annual Fast & Vigil to Abolish the Death Penalty |

PARTICIPANT FUND RAISING OPPORTUNITY
|
The Abolitionist Action Committee recognizes that not all activists
have
deep pockets. No activist will be turned away because they can't
afford
the registration or lodging "suggested minimum donations," and yet,
it does
cost money to produce this event. Also, it costs money for activists to travel to this event. SO, for those who need to raise money to help cover their transportation and registration fees, or for those who simply want to help us raise the money needed to pay for the Fast & Vigil, we offer the "Sponsor a Faster" sign-up sheet. You can print this out, as well as some of the publicity fliers so you can show people what its all about, and ask your friends, family, teachers/professors, local abolitionist groups, clergy, bar manager, or really, anyone you know, to help sponsor your efforts. Just tell them what you are doing and ask if they would like to help by being a sponsor. Set a goal - say $500. That's only ten people giving $50. Or 50 people giving $10. But by setting a goal you can give potential sponsors an idea of what you need, and let them decide how much they can afford. No amount is too small. Just be sure to keep careful track of the money so you can write thank you notes. Please make checks to the Abolitionist Action Committee (AAC), and then the AAC can reimburse you for your expenses. If you have any questions about doing this, just call Abe at 800-973-6548. |
