African Groups to Meet

An open meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 7^th for any individuals or organizations in the greater Capital District currently supporting projects in Africa.

The purpose is to bring together such groups to share program information and explore possible areas of cooperation in the future. Each group is asked to have one representative make a very brief introduction stating the group’s name, purpose and geographic involvement, as well as an issue or two of greatest concern.

After intros, we will examine possible areas of cooperation and next steps. The gathering tentatively named African Project Network is being organized by several groups already involved in Africa who wish to promote learning and sharing among like-minded projects.

The meeting will be held at Westminister Presbyterian Church, 85 Chestnut St., Albany, from 7-8:30pm. Parking and building entry are both on Chestnut St.

For more information, or to express interest if you are unable to attend, contact John Kucij at Lkucij@ gmail.com, or Jim Murphy at tishmurphy@nullaol.com. Folks with no current involvement, but interested in learning more, are welcome.

There is no charge to attend and light refreshments will be served.
