For Pittsburgh Indymedia : On April 23 the Pittsburgh Association of Peacemakers and Proactive Youth held a fundraising dinner to support its first annual youth activist conference.
On Wednesday, April 23, 2003 the Pittsburgh Association of Peacemakers and Proactive Youth (PAPPY) held a fundraising dinner at St. Bede�s church in Point Breeze. Over forty people attended, listening to Tim Vining of the TMC and Zach Harris of PAPPY speak, eating delicious homemade food, and just generally having a good time. Although the total amount of money raised has yet to be determined, including the proceeds from a raffle, donations, and plate fees, early estimates place the number around $900. This was an amazing event for PAPPY, and the money is being used to pay for our first annual Youth Conference. The conference, which is May 23-25, will host a variety of workshops, film screenings, and networking of youth activists from around the region.
I would just like to say thank you for everyone that came, and all of you that have been so generous with your time and effort in supporting the work of PAPPY.
Pictures will follow when i get a minute.
Congratulations, PAPPY
