Francisco is looking for volunteer band members who want to have small
(low overhead) house concerts.  His campaign is also planning a soccer
tournment and volunteer park cleaning - they needs Greens to come out
to join them!  Neighbors from Noe Valley have volunteered to help.
Finally, the campaign needs volunteers to do voter outreach in front
of the Safeway on Mission and France to register people to vote, as
well at several other locations in D11.  Contact Francisco's campaign
directly through his website, or email us at cc at sfgreens.org and we
can help you volunteer!

American people and oppose the TPP.
