After reading Frank Costello's diary, it appears that many of the people lucky enough to be accepted as Obama Organizing Fellows will have some financial difficulty since these are unpaid positions.
It would be great if you could share your ideas about how we at Dkos could encourage this important endeavor.
A few ideas might be:
- Donating food cards;
- Providing room and board;
- Providing help with transportion expenses.
Of course, we would have to find some way of organizing this and verifying with the Obama folks that they would want our help and would be willing to pass it on to the qualified and most needy recipients.
Ideas?
Anyone willing to build a temporary site at Yahoo groups where a core group of us might gather and discuss this more in detail?
