Control list server, Cheques: please make them out correctly Please ensure that your cheques, for membership, donations, purchases, etc, are made out to CAFCA, and nobody else. If you wish to make a donation towards Murray Horton’s pay, then make your cheque out to the CAFCA/ABC Organiser Account (which is a separate account). Taking Control list server: new members welcome The Taking Control list server (electronic discussion group) serves as a useful (and private) electronic network for circulating and discussing material relevant to the fightback against transnational corporate power. For instance, CAFCA regularly sends out press releases and other material through Taking Control. If you’re interested, then e-mail us at: cafca@chch.planet.org.nz Membership is free but conditions apply. And, on the subject of new members, we believe the most effective means of getting our message around is by word of mouth. If you’ve got relatives, friends or workmates whom you think are likely to join CAFCA or be interested in what we have to offer, then put them in touch with us. We’re always ready to welcome new members. You, our existing members, are our most effective recruiters.
CAFCA/ABC organiser account needs more pledgers and donors Murray Horton has been the fulltime Organiser for the Campaign Against Foreign Control of Aotearoa (CAFCA) and the Anti-Bases Campaign (ABC) since 1991. Throughout that whole time his income has been supplied by the CAFCA/ABC Organiser Account, which is sustained by regular pledgers and donations from members and supporters of both groups. None of his income comes from either CAFCA or the ABC. The Organiser Account is separate from, and independent of, both groups, existing solely to supply the income of the Organiser. This quite remarkable achievement has enabled both groups to have the services of a paid organiser, albeit one on the minimum wage. Neither CAFCA nor ABC can afford to directly pay Murray, as they don’t generate anywhere near enough income to pay a worker, as well as finance our activities and publications. The Account just manages to keep its head above water. We ask you to consider becoming a pledger to the CAFCA/ABC Organiser Account. And, of course, we welcome donations. We want to retain Murray as our Organiser and, knowing that you value the work that we and he have been doing for the past decade plus, ask for your help. Donations can be sent to Box 2258, Christchurch, cheques payable to the CAFCA/ABC Organiser Account (we are not registered for GST). Pledges can be automatically paid to that Account at: Westpac, Sydenham Branch, Christchurch. Account number: 030866-0300063-00. Non-Members:
