On our first call for 2010 we had a tremendous guest in Representative Nita Lowey (NY-18). She talked about how assuring that all children around the globe have a basic education is both a moral imperative and critical to US security. She also announced that she will be re-introducing the Education for All Act, but this time with a call to create a Global Fund for Education. She took questions from our activists.
Also on the call, Joanne Carter talked about the opportunities we have in 2010, we got a 2010 campaign overview from Ken Patterson, and Nick Arena gave us an exciting fundraising update. Grassroots activist and Regional Coordinator Kara Stewart told us what she is excited about in 2010 and Teresa Rugg, activist and Regional Coordinator, told us how the Snohomish, WA group creates and leverages broad community support on our global health issues. Activists Linda and Ken Schatz lead the laser talk section with a dialogue on how to make a call to our scheduler.
