It is REALLY easy to be part of Delaware River Area Code Pink:
*Many events just need pink clad bodies to show a Code Pink "presence", we can provide pink accessories too! If you're shy, you won't even have to talk if you don't want to, just show up & hold a sign...
*Need to learn more, confused about the issues? With our activities and the mailing list below, there will be plenty of opportunities to learn and we are here to help you.
*Want to work from home as an "arm-chair" activist? We need those too! E-mails and faxes to your representatives, as well as letters to the editor are vitally important...we have easy templates for you to use to voice your opinion on various issues.
*Don't have TIME? We can work around YOUR schedule, all of us know deep down in our hearts we can spare a few minutes a week, make a phone call or write an email, every little bit helps to stop this bloodshed.
