Fishy to Go to Iran on Peace Delegation

On February 25th, Fishy will be one of 13 delegates from the United States to go to the country of Iran with an organization called the Fellowship of Reconciliation. This organization, FOR, was started in Switzerland and England in 1914 in order to prevent war in Europe at the time. It is still going strong and now has branches in over 40 countries. It’s mission is to spread peace and build diplomacy and solidarity among nations of the world in an attempt to prevent war.

The organization has made six trips to Iran like the one coming up on February 25th, 2008. The mission is for American citizens to go to Iran, visit holy sites and towns, universities and schools, and as many media outlets like television and newspapers as possible in order to connect and dialogue with the Iranian people in hopes of finding common ground and creating more understanding between Americans and Iranians.

Fishy was chosen to be one of the delegates to go on this trip with the Fellowship of Reconciliation on February 25th through March 10th 2008. We are using the ChipIn widget to raise the funds necessary to pay for the expenses. All you have to do is click and donate any amount you desire and it goes right into a special fund especially created for this cause.

Best of all as soon as you donate, you get to watch your contribution raise the meter that much higher and closer to the goal! And your name appears on the list of contributors if you so desire (optional).

Yes ladies and gentlemen we have already crunched the numbers and had our fun with the math. If everyone contributes $5 we will need 600 contributors. $10? Only 300 contributors. $20? Well now we’re down to only 150 contributors. Etc. So give if you can and most of all have some fun with it. And thank you for taking part in this fantastic adventure!
