Subject: Climate Organizing Workshop in the Twin Cities!

 

Hello friends,

MN350âs mission is to support the development of a climate movement powerful 
enough to transform our world and preserve the planet. We understand that our 
power lies with each other, so we want to shine a spotlight on all of the great 
work happening throughout the state & knit together a whole that is greater 
than the sum of its parts.

Getting organized is essential in making large-scale change. That's why we're 
offering a two day Climate Organizer Workshop for people working on climate and 
justice-related work in Minnesota. Itâs free! All you need to bring is your 
passion and energy.

WHAT: October Training in the Twin Cities
WHEN: October 26-27, Saturday 9:00 AM-6:00 PM and Sunday 9:00 AM-5:00 PM
WHERE: Waite House, 2323 11th Ave S, Minneapolis, MN

The 350.org curriculum is based on contributions from leading activist and 
training organizations. It pulls together the most effective strategies and 
tools for organizing. The focus of this workshop will include topics such as 
planning strategic actions and campaigns, leadership skills, and tools for 
building groups and organizations. The workshop will be tailored to the skill 
level and interest of the participants. Whether you are looking to increase the 
impact of your climate work or just diving in, this interactive and 
experiential workshop offers tools and frameworks to support you.

Although the cost to attend is free, donations are accepted. We also ask that 
people commit to being present for the full two days, since the material builds 
on itself and space is limited. Questions? For more information about the 
workshop, visit MN350.org or contact erin [at] MN350.org.

We are so energized by the grassroots movement happening in Minnesota! Thank 
you for being part of it.

Onward,

Kate and the MN350 team

PS. Here's another opportunity to plug in: Over 200 Minnesota youth are 
traveling to Pennsylvania next week to participate in Power Shift 2013, and 
we're supporting this new generation of activists with a sponsorship program. 
Click here for more information on sponsorship 
<http://act.350.org/go/3902?t=2&akid=3661.824190.SyY7lp> , and join us on 
Saturday, October 26 for an evening to support MN's intergenerational movement. 
Sponsored Power Shift attendees will be presenting back to the community about 
their experience, followed by a fundraiser kick-off. We'll gather from 
6:00-8:00 PM at Gandhi Mahal, 3009 27th Ave South. Questions? Contact Patty
