Anyone interested in putting one together in WV?

Subject: iMatter March May 8th

Hello,
 
I wanted to alert your chapter to an inspiring and exciting organization that the Sierra Club is supporting called iMatter.  iMatter is an organization that is mobilizing youth (primarily aged 13-18) to raise awareness about climate change. Their large out-of-the-gate action is a youth-led march happening across the globe on Mother's Day, May 8, 2011.
 
The event is gaining momentum with nearly 60 marches already planned around the world.  The attached spreadsheet is the confirmed list and more marches are being added every day. Check here for the most recent additions near you: http://imattermarch.org/march/find-march/  
 
If you're interested in getting involved with iMatter, either to identify a host, help drive attendance or just help support a march organizer with your guidance and expertise (remember - all marches are lead by youth) please feel free to contact Andrew Peake at andrew@kvgw.org or (530) 574-3803.
 
More information can be found on iMatter's website at http://imattermarch.org/
 


Please forward this email within your chapter.

Best,

Sarah Hodgdon
