Going All Out to Raise the $20,000 Goal for the BA Everywhere Summer Van Tours!

July 10, 2013 | BA Everywhere | revcom.us

We are determined to meet the $20,000 by 11:59pm Pacific time on Monday, July 15th. We can do it.

BA Everywhere Committees, Revolution Clubs, and all who desire fundamental radical change should grapple with and apply the three points in the editorial this week, “All Out to Raise the Funds for the BA Speaks: Revolution Nothing Less! Bob Avakian Live Summer Van Tours,” which are, in brief, [1] spreading the Indiegogo (IGG) campaign – especially the video and ASKING FOR DONATIONS; [2] Everyone spend ½ a day or an evening fundraising for the Indiegogo campaign before the weekend; and [3] go all out this weekend to bring this to a successful finish.

Essential to applying these three points is doing so collectively – building a social movement around BA Everywhere. BA Everywhere Committees, Revolution Clubs, Revolution Bookstores, and other collectivities and organizations should work together to do this.

The following points are critical, meaning right now, to do this:

  1. Everyone LET'S GO ALL OUT!
  2. Collective phone banking is a key form of reaching out and should be organized for two nights before the weekend. BA Everywhere committees, bookstore volunteers, Revolution Clubs, Revolution Bookstores and other collectivities should get together, invite new people and do this.
  3. This should be a weekend of collective fundraising for the BA Everywhere Summer 2013 Indiegogo Campaign. There should be lots of creative, fun and goal oriented plans made and carried out. Collective forms could include get-togethers such as fundraising BBQ’s and house parties, (invite 4 friends and ask for $50.00 each). People could meet in the morning, do some phone banking and go out in teams to follow up with potential donors. Very important – leave space and time to meet with people and ASK for donations. The main point: get together make plans, carry them out, share experiences and sum up. Send in your ideas for the weekend and stay tuned to the revcom.us website for more on the weekend.
  4. Go to the Indiegogo and the BA Everywhere page at revcom.us every day for updates.
