Join The March To Heal The Valley!
Silicon Valley, long heralded as a world-class center for innovation, also has come to symbolize the polarization of wealth that is destroying America.  
We can bring about change, but we need your participation.
>From CHAM Deliverance Ministry, a four-day “March to Heal the Valley”.
 
WHEN:            9:00 AM Monday, Oct 7 through Thursday evening, Oct 10

 
 
WHERE:           From:   Story Road and King, East San Jose

To:       The corporate campuses of Apple and Google
 
WHAT:            March to the wealthiest corporations in the world to…

…develop a dialog and create an ongoing coalition…
 
Crossing diverse neighborhoods, we will…
Gather those devastated by the recent sequester cuts…
…the homeless… and those about to be… the foreclosed…
…those with inadequate or no health care…
…the underpaid and unemployed…
…people of conscience…
Seek those who will join our campaign to end poverty in 
 one of the wealthiest regions in our country!
 
WHY:               Corporations have the power to force the government to
 change its priorities.

                  Corporations indirectly caused the sequester by Lobbying for corporate tax breaks, 
                  We will ask them to lobby to end poverty instead!
 
WE WANT:    

þ  Corporations to offset the impact of the Federal sequester on the Housing Authority of the County of Santa Clara ($21 million).
þ  Corporations to guarantee living wage jobs and benefits for all security and service workers connected with Silicon Valley’s leading industries.
þ  Corporations to fund a Faith Center to bring together the faith community to house and serve the homeless.
þ  Corporations to join us to demand that government end the housing crisis for everyone and bring about the total, direct, and immediate abolition of poverty called for by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
