3 cities raise fund goals
 
BY BEN JOYCE  
With three cities now having raised their quotas, the Militant fund drive requires a sustained effort to collect payments on all the pledges to reach the international goal of $110,000 in full and on time. After the sixth week of the eight-week drive, just over half of the amount of the goal has been collected.

Some $1,300 was collected at an event sponsored by supporters of the Militant in Houston last week. Participants heard Omari Musa give a presentation on the new Pathfinder book Malcolm X, Black Liberation, and the Road to Workers Power, by Jack Barnes. A Houston city bus driver who attended the event purchased the new book, along with a subscription to the Militant, as well as a copy of the Communist Manifesto.

Following the weekend, supporters of the effort raised their quota to $2,800.

Local fund organizers will need to redouble their efforts to get pledges collected and sent to the Militant by the Tuesday evening weekly deadline. If you haven’t made a pledge yet, join the effort! Send a check or money order payable to “The Militant” to 306 W. 37 Street, 10th floor, New York, NY 10018.
