In regards to ordering the donation packages for the Nurturing Liberation Benefit:
If you have submitted an order form to our email address prior to this message, and have NOT yet received a confirmation, it is very likely we did not receive your request. Please resend your filled out pdf to slabc@riseup.net. We need to have all orders placed and received by Tuesday May 7th to give the folks making chocolates adequate time to prepare.
The order form will need to be downloaded, filled out with the necessary information (form has adjustable fields), saved, and emailed to slabc@riseup.net.
We will process your packages and have everything ready for pickup on May 11th from 1pm to 3:30pm at Buds Vegan Sandwich Shop (509 E. 300 S. SLC) unless you have made other arrangements with us via email.
Please remember all orders MUST be placed by Tuesday May 7th in order to give the chocolate crafters time to prepare the boxes. Good things take time, ya know?
In the meantime, please enjoy these kittens:
We are pleased to announce a fundraising effort for past and present vegan political prisoners. While incarcerated, food that is free of animal products can be difficult to obtain; two common items- peanut butter and oatmeal, usually need to be purchased with a prisoner’s commissary. In addition to this, once a vegan prisoner is released, more restrictions exist in finding employment and achieving financial stability. If you’ve taken part in the job search recently, you’ll know the hardship this causes. From now until Tuesday, May 7th we are taking orders for donation packages that contain vegan chocolates, mother’s day cards, and more sweet goods/services.

In order to help each participant better chance the item they would like to win (rather than draw something they may not like, as is done in a traditional raffle) we have separated the items into three categories that a single ticket may be entered into.
+Body Posi (Body Care)
+Nom Noms (Food Stuffs)
+Vegan Swag (Veg Gear & Apparel)
+Home is Where the Heart is (Decor)
Happy Valentines.

The benefit last weekend was a great success! We raised more than any of our previous fundraisers and received help from places we never expected. We wanted to thank everyone who donated to the event. Without your help we would have been in trouble.
As a reminder: Letter writing is this upcoming Tuesday (12/18) at the library. Please attend if you can.
with love,
Salt Lake Anarchist Black Cross
