{news} USGP-INT 16 days until Global Greens: Please contribute what you can

[Justine McCabe]

Dear CT Greens, 

I'm forwarding this message from our IC fundraising chair, Marnie Glickman concerning our participation in the 2nd Global Green Conference in Sao Paolo, May 1-4 in which 70+ Green parties from around the world will be present.  The main topic is climate change. http://www.globalgreens.org/index.php  

In addition to the expenses Marnie refers to, each Green party is asked to contribute money to fund participation of Greens in the developing countries.  For example, the European Green Party will contribute about $12,000.  We're trying to make some contribution to this as well.

I appreciate the generosity of those who have already contributed to this effort. 

Please give what you can.

Thanks,

Justine 
Co-Chair, International Committee, USGP

Dear Green friends,


The Global Greens conference begins in 16 days.  There are six people representing our party from the International Committee.  


We do not yet have enough money to pay for the pricey registration fees.  (It costs $285 per person.)


We have raised $1,220 so far.  We need to raise at least another $500.


Give today at:  https://secure.democracyinaction.com/dia/organizations/Greens/shop/custom.jsp?donate_page_KEY=1933.


We are paying for our own airfare and accommodations.


Contribute at:  https://secure.democracyinaction.com/dia/organizations/Greens/shop/custom.jsp?donate_page_KEY=1933.


Please be generous.  


By building partnerships with Greens around the world, we strengthen our party and candidates in our country.


Peace,
Marnie Glickman
Pacific Green Party of Oregon
