Please tell everyone you know: we need MORE!! signatures! People can sign here online, where they can also read our posts and keep up with some of the aspects of the story. Or, people can sign in person at the subway plaza (F train/Carroll Street) as there is a petition left there at all times and sometimes we are out there getting signatures in person OR!
Sunday we will be at the new outodoor farmer's market in front of PS 58 (where we were last week) getting signatures, meeting people, and buying yummy fresh vegetables, baked goods, etc.
Remember: All volunteers are welcome at CORD. Please email us at CG CORD@gmail.com if you would like to help out in some way. Thank you!
