The Last Supper

From MacKenzie:

THE LAST SUPPER - December 5, 2008, Harwich Community Center, 5:30-8

The event is this upcoming Friday, the cost is $20. and will be from 5:30-8, so mark your calendars. It IS a semiformal event...this means NO JEANS PLEASE!

The Last Supper is an event to celebrate the end of STANDfast, We are advocating and raising money for Civilian Protection, not aid. Why? Laurent Nkunda says it in terms we can all understand, "We are hungry and thirsty, but we don't want any aid. We want security. We want this war to stop."

As the holidays approach, and we start out Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Saturnalia, etc. celebrations, we need to take the time to think about those in need--those who cannot see a sunrise without wondering "When will I be next?" Those who have lost their mothers, brothers, fathers, children.

$3. can allow a woman to safely collect firewood for a week.
$5. enables urgent warnings of attack to reach a village in Eastern Burma.

STANDfast is not about denying yourself food, but giving up ONE luxury item, either for the whole week, or on December 5th, and donating the money to civilian protection. Checks can be made out to Town of Harwich, but make sure to write in HHS STAND, and mail to:

Harwich High School Stand c/o John Dickson
75 Oak Street
Harwich, MA 02645

or if you're a student, you can make donations to any STAND member, or drop in your extra change in the lunch line.


Thanks for your time, and I hope to see you all there!

HHS STAND Co-President
