Bring the US Campaign to Your Area!

Dear Robert,

The US Campaign is now accepting applications for our fall 2009
national campus organizing tour.  The goal of this tour is to build
sustainable boycott & divestment campaigns on campuses in five cities
across the country.

The relationship between the US Campaign and boycott & divestment
campaigns in the five selected city will be much more than just three
days of workshops & events - it will include a commitment from all
parties to work together to build local, regional, and national
networks for organizers working on boycott & divestment.  Click here
to read more about the vision and expectations for this tour.  Click
here to see the selection criteria for tour hosts. Click here to
submit an application to host a tour stop.

Student groups, faculty members, and community groups working on
campuses are all invited to apply to host this tour.  One goal for
this tour is to build local coalitions that include students, faculty,
alumni & community members - so start building your coalition now and
apply together or as individual groups.

If you can't commit to hosting a leg of this tour
you can still help!

boycott and get started holding this war profiteering company
accountable today.  You can also click here to make a tax-deductible
donation supporting the tour and our other efforts at building the US
boycott & divestment movement.

The movement for boycott & divestment as a too of nonviolent
resistance to the Israeli military occupation has come a long way
since the US Campaign was founded seven years ago and we're proud to
say that we've played a role in this growth.  Now, after Hampshire
College's successful divestment, we are proud to be working with the
students from Hampshire SJP to bring the necessary speakers and
workshops to campus communities across the country.  A comprehensive
organizing effort like this may have been just a dream seven years
ago, but your support has made it a reality today.  Continue
supporting our boycott & divestment work by making a contribution in
support of our fall 2009 tour today!
