UNITED FOR PEACE AND JUSTICE NEEDS YOUR HELP TODAY

============================================

We need your help. More specifically, we need your financial support, and
we need it now.

Ten days ago, the antiwar movement in this country showed its dynamism and
breadth. In an unprecedented number of cities and towns -- close to 800, in
all 50 states -- our voices were heard: It is time to end the war in Iraq
and bring the troops home. United for Peace and Justice played a major role
in making this the powerful weekend it was, supporting local groups all
around the country with resources, publicity, and networking.

Six weeks earlier, over 450 representatives from nearly 300 of the UFPJ
member groups gathered in St. Louis at our 2nd National Assembly. In the
course of two and half inspiring days, we agreed on a focused, strategic
program of work designed to target the Bush administration's political
vulnerabilities, strengthen our movement, and move us closer to our goal of
bringing the troops home.

All this means we're in a solid position to build a movement powerful
enough to actually stop this war. UFPJ has the largest network of national
and local antiwar groups in the nation, a strategic plan for targeting
Bush's vulnerabilities, and a track record of excellent work.

What we are missing is the financial resources that will allow us to do the
work. And this is where each of you comes in....we need your financial
support and we need it today.

If every person reading this email made even a modest donation, we would
have enough money to cover our office rent, phone bills, staff salaries and
health insurance, web consultants, printing and other expenses for the rest
of this year.

Whatever you can send -- $10, $15, $25, $50 or more -- will go directly
into our campaigns to solidify and expand antiwar sentiment across the
country, counter the military's recruiting campaigns, pressure elected
officials to cut off support and funding for the war, and target other key
vulnerabilities in the Bush administration's war program.

You can make your donation in one of three easy ways:
* By credit card online: http://www.unitedforpeace.org/donate
* By credit card over the phone: 212-868-5545
* By check or money order: UFPJ, P.O. Box 607, Times Square Station, NY
NY 10108

The people of this country want the war in Iraq to end and for our troops
to be brought home -- that's clear. But without financial resources, United
for Peace and Justice cannot move forward on our antiwar campaigns. Your
donation is urgently needed.

Please, support the crucial work of this coalition by making the most
generous contribution you can today!
