New Mexico Oxfam Action Corps Invites You to Learn More about GROW

Kalen Olsen
Kalen Olsen and Jasmine McBeath, grassroots volunteer leaders for Oxfam Action Corps in New Mexico, invite you to join them and Oxfam organizer Brian Rawson this Sunday for a discussion of Oxfam's GROW campaign. They will examine how the campaign's principles are being promoted locally and around the world.

If you recall, on a recent Saturday, Oxfam Action Corps set up a display and informational table at the Downtown Growers Market at Robinson Park with information about GROW.

GROW aims to build a better food system: one that sustainably feeds a growing population (estimated to reach nine billion by 2050) and empowers poor people to earn a living, feed their families, and thrive. 

Here is more information about Sunday's meeting:
Sunday, August 26
Flying Star Café
723 Silver Ave SW
(Downtown)
 5:00 p.m.

If you are unable to come to this meeting, there will be another opportunity on Wednesday, September 26, also at the Flying Star Café.  The September meeting starts at 6:00 p.m.

For more information, contact Kalen Olsen or Jasmine McBeath, nmoxfamactioncorps@gmail.com
