>Hello!
>
>I wanted to share with you all a few upcoming events and 
>opportunities with the Campaign for Fair Food here in the greater 
>Chicago area.  First, two CIW farmworker leaders will be in the area 
>throughout February and March with the purpose of raising 
>consciousness.  If you know of a congregation, class, group or folks 
>interested in hearing from one of them about conditions in the 
>fields, modern-day slavery rings, supply chain responsibility, and 
>more, just let  me know!
>
>Second, if you are a person of faith, mark your calendars for 
>Saturday, March 3rd for Partners in Faith: Working for Human Rights 
>and Fair Food!  This Faith Symposium will delve into the theological 
>and practical aspects of faith-based involvement of the campaign for 
>fair food and tools and ideas to bring it back to your 
>congregation.  It will be held at Euclid United Methodist Church in 
>Oak Park, and let me know if you would like a flier or more information.
>
>Finally, if you are interested in helping plan for the Campaign for 
>Fair Food in the upcoming months, you are invited to a planning 
>meeting on Monday, January 22nd, at Westchester Community Church at 
>7pm.  (1840 Westchester Blvd, Westchester, IL 60154).  We'd love to 
>see you there and if you can't make it, but have ideas and would 
>like to get more involved, feel free send me an e-mail or give me a call.
>
>I look forward to being in touch with you in the coming months as we 
>call on McDonald's to ensure dignity and justice for farmworkers in 
>its supply chain.
>
>peace,
