Saturday, 08 October 2011

Right now, the heroes occupying for justice at Wall Street and in our nation’s capital are in need of food & supplies in order to stay healthy and combat the elements.

NationofChange in coordination with organizers on the ground is raising $5,000 this weekend to supply the protesters at Liberty Square and Freedom Plaza with some of the following essentials: hot food, water bottles, sleeping bags, blankets, tarps, plastic storage bins, polar fleece sweaters, pants, socks, gloves, medical supplies, and more...

Help us keep these men and women equipped to perform the most direct form of democracy in existence on behalf of us all. If you’ve been looking for an opportunity to support the movement in a direct, “boots on the ground” way, this is your chance.

Make a generous tax-deducible donation to NationofChange now!

5. Does anyone have 'clean up duty' at these events? Here's an article
from CBS News with a photo of an extremely littered site:

The list of items requested begs the question: Do corporations make those items requested?
