Abdoulaye, thanks very much for your leadership and the time spent in this
effort. Yes, no amount is small. I would take this opportunity to
encourage our sisters to be heard. We already have quite a few make their
voices heard but we need to hear from many more. Please pledge and send
your contributions to my care: Joe Sambou, 8046 S. Kimbark Ave., Chicago, IL
60619. Thanks to all those that already pledged and please help us spread
the word.
