*2 DAYS LEFT! THERE IS STILL TIME TO SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT APRIL 29!*

Friends,

There are just 2 days left until the massive demonstration this Saturday, April 29! Buses are coming from as far as Wisconsin, Illinois, Colorado and North Carolina! Folks in New Haven have chartered a train for 1,200! And, of course, people will be getting on subways and buses from all 5 boroughs and throughout the area. But there are still people here in NYC who don?t know that there will be a national march here on Saturday for Peace, Justice and Democracy and for all the things those words embody: Iraq, Iran, immigrants, women, the environment, civil rights. We can turn this country around!!

That is why we need *everyone* who possibly can to hand out 100 or 200 or 1,000 leaflets these next 2 days. We don?t want anyone to see the papers on Sunday and say, ?I would have been there if I had only known about it!?

*Please help us get the word out!* If you can commit even an hour over these next 2 days (although 2 or 5 would be great!), it will make a difference! We are organizing a city-wide leafleting effort for tomorrow, Friday, April 28th. There are several ways you can be part of this effort:

1) Come to the UFPJ office at 11 am or at 5 pm on Friday to hook up with others and pick up leaflets, stickers and posters.

2) Join a team of people at 4 pm on the southwest corner of Union Square -- leaflets will be there to be picked up.

3) Pick up leaflets at one of the distribution sites <http://www.april29.org/article.php?id=3200>.

4) Pick up leaflets at the UFPJ office anytime on Thursday evening (office open to 9 pm) or during the day on Friday.

5) Download a leaflet from the website <http://www.april29.org/article.php?id=3200> and make your own copies.

The UFPJ office is at 261 West 36th St, 7th floor, between 7th and 8th Aves.

Let us know where you will be leafleting so we know which areas are being covered. Email us at outreach at unitedforpeace.org <mailto:outreach at unitedforpeace.org>.

Volunteers are still needed for Saturday -- sign up here <http://www.april29.org/modinput4.php?modin=8>.

You are also invited to march with UFPJ-NYC?s Peace Zone NYC <http://www.unitedforpeace.org/ny> contingent. We will gather on 20th St., between Broadway and Park Ave. South at 11:00 am. Enter from Park Ave. South.

THANKS. We can make a difference!

In Peace, Leslie Kielson Street Outreach Coordinator
