Proceeds of this auction benefit the YearlyKos organization.
PLEASE BID GENEROUSLY!
YearlyKos is dedicated to organizing and supporting an annual meeting of progressive netroot activists. The 2006 Yearly Kos convention will be held in Las Vegas at the Riviera Hotel, June 8 - 11, and will provide 1500 convention attendants and tens of thousands of online participants (via webcasting and live blogging) with training sessions, panel discussions, and lectures by leading lights of the blogosphere (including activists, politicians, and technical experts). Most importantly, it will provide the opportunity for progressive citizens to meet with each other and form connections. Our auction proceeds will go toward our effort to keep the registration cost at an affordable level and include as many people as possible in this important meeting-of-minds.
YearlyKos is organized for exclusively charitable purposes under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, an application is pending with the IRS for the recognition of YearlyKos as a charitable organization under section 501(c)3 of the IRC.
Thanks for supporting YearlyKos and Happy New Year!
