[Nadine Quehl]

Hello Bob,

Thanks for this opportunity. Here is some information on Alliance Against Poverty (AAP) and see you on Saturday! :

Alliance Against Poverty (AAP) 

Mission Statement: 
We are an alliance of individuals from a variety of 
economic and social situations who strive to end poverty 
within our society by:
• practicing solidarity with those who have enough 
	and those who do not have enough
• learning from one another through experience, 
	reflection, and action
• applying direct political pressure to all three levels of 
	government
•a personal commitment to group values and actions

Principles of Action: commitment to non-violent 
action; participation in political action and/or personal 
and direct advocacy for and with others to eliminate 
poverty; public unanimity on positions taken by AAP as a 
group; willingness to collaborate with other groups and 
individuals on specific projects to build a movement to 
eradicate poverty; AAP will not seek or accept funding 
from any level of government. 

AAP is a partner of the Local KW Common Front, a 
coalition of community groups and labour unions that 
have come together to promote social justice and 
prosperity for everyone. For more information contact Nadine at 
nquehl at uwaterloo.ca or Oz at 519-883-4005

Hi Bob,

We are not able to run a table at the festival this weekend. Here is some text for your flyer, if you still have room:

"Basic Income Waterloo Region is part of a Canada-wide grassroots movement to make a basic income guarantee the next great innovation in social policy. Basic income is money paid by government to individuals on a regular basis to ensure that no one’s income drops below the minimum needed to provide an adequate standard of living."

Thanks
John
