Dear friends of the People's Hurricane Relief Fund—

Since Hurricane Katrina, Community Labor United—a New Orleans based
coalition dedicated to creating spaces for grassroots organizations to
dialogue, strategize, and build collective work-- has been facilitating
the development of a Peoples' Hurricane Relief Fund & Oversight
Coalition.
Due to the enormity of the task ahead of us and the many different areas
of work that need to be addressed, it has become clear that a national
coalition must form to take on this project.

Many of you have read the initial demands of the Peoples Hurricane Relief
Fund & Oversight Coalition. The document here below attempts to further
specify the goals and objectives of this coalition effort, and to
communicate a basic framework for organizing the massive body of work
before us. We also outline here a few of the many tasks we need folks to
take responsibility for.

Some of the work groups already have contact people so if you are
interested in these work groups, please email the provided contact. They
will be convening conference call meetings in the near future to include
new volunteers. There will be a retreat at the end of the
month(September 30)
and each work group should send a representative to present a report of
your work and future work plans. The meeting space will be announced
shortly.

Some of the work groups do not yet have contact people. If you are
willing to be the contact, please email Becky at [bbelcore [at] hotmail.com]
