Annual Meeting/Dinner

Peacemakers,

    Our annual dinner is on Saturday, 12 January, 4:30 pm at the Sticky Rice Restaurant, 203 6th Street, around the corner from Dewey’s in Racine.

PLEASE LET ELAINE KNOW THAT YOU WILL BE ATTENDING SO SHE CAN MAKE RESERVATIONS.

    At the dinner, we will have elections, perhaps some short other concerns, and mostly just enjoy the company of each other.  All persons interested in peace and justice are invited.

     We have chosen a locally owned restaurant with authentic Thai meals and fair prices.  Hope you will join us!

ANERA FUNDRAISER

From March through October, over 200 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed (including over 33 children), 24,000 injured (1/4 of them children), and more than 5,000 hospitalized due to live ammunition injuries. 1,200 patients will require long-term limb reconstruction and extensive rehabilitation.

Racine Coalition for Peace & Justice is calling on its friends and members, and all friends of justice, to help relieve the desperate needs of the victims of military violence in Gaza.

To raise funds to address the emergency medical needs of the people of Gaza, RCPJ is partnering with American Near East Refugee Aid (Anera).

please support the brave people of Gaza by contributing to American Near East Refugee Aid (Anera).
