This year for Congo Week, Congo Activists of Michigan is collaborating with Friends of the Congo and the Dear Hillary Campaign for the Congo to send Secretary Hillary Clinton 10,000 birthday postcards for peace in the Congo. This campaign is asking Secretary Clinton to withhold non-humanitarian aid to Rwanda until they stop supporting the M23 Rebels.
The Dear Hillary Campaign team, an activist group in Vermont, has sent us 1000 pre-stamped postcards. Our task is to get them all signed and sent by October 26, Hillary's birthday. We can also take pictures of our postcards and post them on facebook or twitter using tags @Hillary4Congo @CongoActivists #CongoWeek .
