[Peace-discuss] Re: [Sandra Ahten Art] food for Mississippi

[Joan Nelshoppen]

Yes, Carol Ammons has written a PSA and is getting it to radio stations.
I've been trying to send an easily forwardable note to the peace lists with
the PSA attached but it is not going through!  Frustration!!!!  I will try
again.  Maybe I had too many addresses and it was rejected because of that.

Has anyone put out a press release and tried to get WCIA or WILL over
there to broadcast this? Does anyone have time? I could do a very basic
outline but don't have the details that the media would need.

This breaks my heart. I know people want to help - they just need to find
out about it.
