[New-Poetry] poets against the war

[Anny Ballardini]

February 24, 2008

Dear Friends: 


Apologies: the winter 2008 issue of Poets Against War Newsletter has been 
posted since January and I forgot to send out an alert. 


We need your help. You can read in the newsletter about our efforts to aid 
15 seriously hearing-impaired children in Vietnam. Five have hearing aids 
now and are hearing for the first time, thanks to donations from Poets 
Against War. These young people will remember us with gratitude forever. 
It's a gesture we made after talking with many 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation 
victims of Agent Orange in Vietnam last year. (See our Links for more on 
this.) 

We need donations to keep the web page, newsletter and anthology going, and 
to make a few small but important gestures of international good will. 
Everyone at Poets Against War works entirely on a volunteer basis, so your 
contributions will go directly to essential works. Please help. 

Join us if you can at the Split This Rock Poetry Festival in Washington 
D.C. in March, and help us elect a more peaceful, more democratic 
government in this election year. 


Sam Hamill 
Director 
Poets Against War
