Commercial Alert Fundraiser this Thursday, October 20th, 2005
Please join Matt Gonzalez and Gary Ruskin, executive director of
Commercial Alert, for happy hour. Gary Ruskin is a Harvard (Kennedy
School of Government) alumni who has been at the forefront of
progressive politics working to limit the influence of commercialism.
Gary has been repeatedly interviewed and quoted in the Wall Street
Journal, New York Times, National Public Radio and 60 Minutes. Please
come and learn more about Commercial Alert's past successes, current
campaigns and the challenges of running a nationally respected
non-profit with very little funding.
Date: Thursday, October 20
Time: 6:00pm - 8:00pm
Place: Cafe Royale, 800 Post Street at Leavenworth
Suggested contribution: $30, $50, $100 or whatever you can afford
Commercial Alert is not your typical nonprofit. Commercial Alert's
mission is to keep the commercial culture within its proper sphere,
and to prevent it from exploiting children and subverting the higher
values of family, community, environmental integrity and democracy.
