Hi All:
The brutal murder of Deyda Hydara has re-sparked an interest in some to at least start a dialogue
again about creating a fund to assist the Independent media with their mounting financial obligations.
Towards the end of 2003, a fund was created for that stated purpose. The goal was to have Gambians
and Friends of Gambian contribute $1 per month thus eliminating a huge financial burden on any one
individual. Those that couldn’t afford the $1 per month contribution had the opportunity to
contribute any amount they could afford. Since that time, the total amount collected in the fund
is $322.
We, the contributors of the fund would like to transfer the custody of the funds to the GPU or it's
designate in the US with one stipulation: The designated individual(s) agree to continue raising
and managing the funds collected for the Independent media until it is deemed by all pertinent
parties that a fund is no longer needed for the stated purpose.
I would like to thank those who put this issue back on the table.
Please take care…
P.S. - Chris, can you forward this to the G-Talk and Post…
