Subject: [Vensteering] Announcing VSN Staff Hires

I am excited to announce that the Venezuela Solidarity Network has hired two half time organizers.

 

James Jordan will work out of Tucson, AZ to coordinate the Emergency Response Network and to organize grassroots affiliation with VSN West of the Mississippi.  You can reach James by email at James@xxxxxxxx.

James will continue to work on US ?democracy building? issues including the NED and Worker to Worker Solidarity which is pushing the AFL-CIO for a new foreign policy by US labor.  James will continue to work in his landscaping company the other ?half? of his time.

 

Banbose Shango will work out the DC office of the Alliance for Global Justice and VSN.  He will coordinate building a grassroots base East of the Mississippi and serve as liaison with the People of African Decent in Solidarity-Venezuela (PADS-V) committees.  The other half of his time will be for the Alliance for Global Justice fundraising for VSN, Nicaragua Network, and Campaign for Labor Rights. You can reach Banbose by email at banbose@xxxxxxxx.

 

Chuck Kaufman will continue to be loaned by the Nicaragua Network as Interim Coordinator of VSN and the Alliance for Global Justice will continue to loan the services of AfGJ Program Coordinator Rebekah Lundquist.  If you haven?t checked out the web page in awhile visit www.vensolidarity.org and see a sample of Rebekah?s good work.  You can reach Chuck and Rebekah at VSN@xxxxxxxx or either one at their personal emails, Chuck@xxxxxxxx and Rebekah@xxxxxxxx.

 

We are very happy that direct mail fundraising is beginning to bear fruit and can now support two half-time positions.  We hope that the donor base will continue to grow and that we will be able to expand staff in the future.

 

Chuck Kaufman

Interim Coordinator
