Repost of ray of light's thread:

Please go to the DCP and read this thread on the blog. :hi:

Feed The Activists!
Jack came to Washington for the first demonstration against the war, in 2003--the one that was so huge and so clear that we just knew we could stop the invasion...three years later, Jack is back, age 22, having taken a leave from college, to work on The World Can't Wait events. He has been in NYC, assisting local chapters across the country, and after traveling across the country a few times, now he is here, helping to organize the DC events.

Donate button is on the left side bar at the top.

http://www.democracycellproject.net/blog/archives/2006/01/feed_the_activi.html#comments


If you can afford it please donate to help to feed the activists. Any amount helps!

Karendc is hosting these 14 kids and was also one of the people from the World Can't Wait who arranged housing for people in September for the rally. She also hosted the Fillibuster kids too.


Please, please help! Thanks everyone!

We've done pretty well, nonetheless.

Wish I could do more, I really do. Wish I could be one of the ones in DC too.

Finding it hard to keep heat and food on my family myself. Thanks for doing this.

6. Hey, a kick and a vote and especially hope are much appreciated.
:hi:

I wish I could go to. Instead, I sent a few dollars so a fed activist could shake a fist for me. lol

18. I know. I wish I could be there too.
But every kick and r helps. And even emailing friends or family who still are one of the few with a few dollars to spare really helps.

Help these folks out. DC is an expensive town. Just ask Jack Abramoff. ;)

Seriously, this is a great idea.
