Help Organize the Largest Food Not Bombs Ever! Meeting This Sunday @5pm!
Posted Nov 2 2011 - 3:17pm by LongIslandFNB
It’s starting again, and it’s going to be even bigger than before. It’s time to prepare for the Long Island Food Not Bombs annual Thanksgiving Bonanza! Last year we organized the world’s largest Food Not Bombs celebration ever! The largest vegan Thanksgiving celebration ever! Oh and we also shared Tens-of-Thousands of pounds of vegetarian groceries and hot meals with thousands of people across Long Island and the NYC/Metropolitan area!
On Sunday, Nov. 6th (after the Hempstead Food Share) at 5pm Long Island Food Not Bombs & Community Solidarity, Inc. will be holding a meeting to discuss how we’re going to outdo ourselves yet again. Our plans our big, ambitious and they can only work if we get your help.
This years Thanksgiving Bonanza will have nearly a dozen events throughout the week of November 19th-25th. The largest of all these events will be our Vegan Thanksgiving. It's a 2-day affair that starts as an all night cooking party on Saturday, Nov.19th, (everyone is invited) and culminates into the Vegan Thanksgiving Food Share the next day (Nov.20th) in Hempstead.
We expect thousands to attend this one event and we’re asking for your help to make sure that we’ll be able to share a feast with everyone that comes! The festivities will then be continue throughout the following week with nearly a dozen events spread across our Food Shares in Coram, Huntington, BedStuy & Farmingville and across some super secret locations we’ll be announcing later.
This is our most ambitious project to date and to pull it off we are going to need your help, your friends help and even the help of their friends. Solidarity is what makes Long Island Food Not Bombs so strong and we ask that you help us make these events even more absurdly inspirational then we could ever imagine.
This Sunday, November 6th, at 5pm (sharp) please come down to the Witches Brew Café’ as we discuss this matter further, pass along information to your friends, and bring your neighbors. The more people who get involved the crazy it will all be!
