New International Postcard Campaign for the Cuban 5

International Committee for the Freedom of the Cuban 5

Obama...Give me Five!

International Postcard Campaign


We are starting the year with a campaign that features a new postcard and poster  campaign directed at President Obama, urging him to free the Cuban 5.  
 

It is a campaign that is coming together in a truly international way.  The image of the campaign was created by Cuban graphic artist Jorge Martell, and  between the Canadian Union of Postal Workers and the Union of Rotativist of France we will have 50,000 postcards printed in English and Spanish. Also, from the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, friends from the International Institute of Political Studies 5 Heroes will  have 10,000 posters available soon.  
 

With this same image we will print thousands of flyers to distribute around the United States. We are finding out the cost to place ads in magazines and newspapers. The campaign also hopes to put up billboards, banners and big signs in public spaces.   

We believe that the message of the postcard will be an attractive one for US audiences and will be stronger if the same message gets multiplied all over the world. We will make the PDF available for you to print them locally. If you need to order postcards write to: info@thecuban5.org

Besides this publicity campaign, we are planning a number of projects that will include conferences, showing of documentaries, literature tables in public spaces and participate in different important events.

As all the legal recourses for the Cuban 5 wind down it is more important than ever to expand our outreach and visibility to bring about awareness of the case that will inevitably be the key ingredient in gaining their freedom.

TO MAKE ALL OUR PROJECTS POSSIBLE
WE NEED YOUR HELP

 

As you know, all our funds come only from the help of solidarity friends.

We ask you to consider making a onetime donation by going to the following link DONATE  

We are living in very difficult economic times that is why we are asking you to  consider making the commitment to donate monthly towards the projects of our committee. We have touched many new audiences in the US  and are planning to continue in the same direction, but we need your help. 

If many of you are able to contribute monthly, even with a minimum pledge of $5 or $10, we can multiply the actions and make a greater impact in winning over the hearts and minds of people in the US. 

To make a monthly donation until the Cuban 5 return home go to SUBSCRIBE. You can choose any amount, $5, $10, $25, $50 or $100 (you can cancel your subscription at any time.)

You can also make a tax deductible check to International Committee and send it to:

International Committee for the Freedom of the Cuban 5

P.O. Box 22455

Oakland, CA 94609

If you want to send a bank wire write to us to info@thecuban5.org and we will send you the information needed for such transaction.

This struggle will be won and the harder we work the sooner will be the day when these 5 brave men go home to their families and the Cuban people who consider them Heroes.
 
Thank you for considering supporting our ongoing projects.
