Hi Folks, we had quite the successful event with our Moveon “Hungry for Change” Bake Sale this Saturday. It was a challenging event and I think that everyone did a terrific job. The proof is in the puddin’ as they say, so lets look at how we did. We had several goals for this event:
1. Raise money for MoveOn’s efforts to elect Barack Obama to the White House and other progressives to the House and Senate.
2. Let Madison know that MoveOn has changed gears and is organizing local grass roots councils to help make their formidable internet communications network more effective.
3. Spread the word that there is a Madison Area MoveOn Council that holds Monthly action events and will be participating in MoveOn’s massive voter registration and get out the vote efforts this fall.
4. Recruit members for our local council (about 60 strong now).
At last month’s council meeting, we set an ambitious goal of $500.00. We raised just over $600.00. This is fantastic!!

We made a lot of progress with our recruiting goals: by talking directly with people, handing out our business card and by just taking the names of people who want to help.
THE BAKE SALE WAS AN UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS. CONGRATULTIONS TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED AND THANK YOU!
