Purpose

I'd like to invite all OWS Corvallis to participate in the already scheduled Amnesty International Write-A-Thon on Sat, Dec 10 from noon to 4pm at Sunnyside Up Cafe,116 NW 3rd.

This will be an important action, as the Corvallis community is invited to join the Corvallis Amnesty International Writers.

This is our third year to participate. We will be signing letters (already written by AI) to leaders in 15 countries calling for justice on behalf of prisoners of conscience.

We also will write short greeting cards to these prisoners. Last year we wrote and signed 700 cards and letters. These get bundled and mailed together to save on overseas airmail postage! This is a really positive action! Look for the lime green posters & quarter page handouts that I'll be posting in businesses in the next 2 days.

Let me know if you'd like to have multiple copies to handout!
