Title A name given to the resource Madison Area Peace Coalition E-mails Description An account of the resource The Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) formed fourteen days after the September 11 attacks to oppose (among other goals) the use of U.S. military, economic, or political force – whether direct or proxy, overt or covert -- "that violates the sovereignty or human rights of any nation or people." The Archive has assembled here e-mails exchanges from MAPC dating from the group's founding until late November 2001. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. ACTIVITIES UPDATE: (1)  Grantwriting.  Our application for annual funding from Wisconsin Community Fund has survived the first cut, and will be reviewed by the full Grants Committee.  Our application for a $500.00 Special Opportunity Grant from WCF is awaiting final revisions and will be submitted on Monday. (3)  Donations from organizational members.  E-mails and letters went out November 14-15 to all MAPC organizational members, requesting donations in the $25.00 to $100.00 range. (4)  Direct mail fundraising.  First mailing scheduled for early December. All MAPC organizational members have been asked to consider allowing MAPC to use their mailing lists on a one-time basis. (5)  Dance Party.  All systems go for November 20 at the Cardinal Bar, 9:00 p.m. until bartime.  21+ age rule applies. (6)  Art Auction.  Scheduled for December 2 at Mother Fool's.  Posters & leaflets soliciting art donations are being printed today.  We are still looking for a coordinator for this event. (7)  Buttons.  The first 150 buttons have arrived, with another 150 expected on Nov. 17.  47 buttons were sold at the general membership meeting; this covered our production costs for the full order. (8)  Finances.  A complete financial report will be provided at the meeting. ASSISTANCE NEEDED: Outreach: (1)  Postering for Art Auction.  Posters will be at Rainbow Bookstore (2)  Including event fundraiser info, donation boxes, and buttons at literature tables Media: (1)  Publicity for Art Auction Arts & Culture: (1)  Assistance with promotion & solicitation of art for the Art Auction. Student/Youth Caucus: (1)  Help publicize Art Auction on campus. All WGs & Caucus: (1)  Incorporation of a fundraising component into all Coalition activities PROPOSALS: (1)  Budgeting for Working Groups and Caucus (a)  The last time we established budgets for each WG/C was one month ago, on October 14.  We should establish allocation levels for the upcoming month at this meeting.  I will have up-to-date information about the Coalition's finances on Sunday. It has also been suggested that the CC should include a budget for itself in the list of allocations. The Fundraising & Finance Committee requests that its allocation remain at the $150.00 level. (b)  It appears that several committees have substantially overspent their allocated funds.  The problem appears to be that members are spending money autonomously, either charging printing to a MAPC account at Lakeside Press or expecting reimbursement, but the WGs and Outies are not being kept aware of how much is being spent, or discussing budgeting when decisions are made to spend money. The Co-Treasurers recommend that we review these budget overruns, and develop policy/procedures to ensure that the WGs/Outies know what is being spent before it is spent, and, where overruns are anticipated,  bring requests for additional funds to the CC in advance.
