Contents: 1. Draft of invitation copy • 2. Timetable • 3. Solicitation of funds • 4. Program discussion • The minutes say the timetable was reviewed and approved; Kathy will work to get a union to handle calls about the ad book sales. The minutes say the committee agreed that we will not solicit contributions from firms who do business in South Africa; the group also agreed that we should not try to get a non-prof it sponsor for tax deductible donations. The minutes say Rose will get a letter to Robert Healey asking: 1) the CFL to send a letter to all its affiliates about the benefit, and 2) for help contacting sports celebrities through their unions. The minutes say the committee agreed to ask Nomondo Ngubo to open or close the program with a song, to provide a cultural component; the emcee will be chosen with thought given to providing a racial and sexual balance among the speakers; the committee also agreed that we will try to think of some brief but significant way to recognize the unions that were instrumental in forming the Network.
