Calling all Ethiopians in the DC Area

By Teddy Fikre

There are 11 vans rented and ready to go, with the option of getting more vans for this weekend’s trip to North Carolina. Ethiopians for Obama have been working hard to ensure Senator Obama’s nomination and ultimate victory in November. North Carolina presents us with another opportunity to contribute to change and take part in our great democracy.

This is a call to all Ethiopians in the DC metro area to join E4O in making a difference in North Carolina. We will be leaving Friday (May 2nd) at 7:00 PM and returning Sunday evening. The transportation has been taken care of, housing will be provided–names have to be submitted by the close of business today so that we can ensure space in the vans for all those who can make it.

Please join Ethiopians for Barack Obama on our caravan for change this weekend. You will get a chance to meet your fellow Ethiopian-Americans who have made unbelievable contributions in this primary season. There are a lot of Ethiopians in North Carolina, and they will be elated to see their fellow Ethiopian-Americans taking part in such a noble effort.

Forward this to all your friends and family, anyone who wants to make the trip to North Carolina this weekend, please email [email protected] and put “Yechalal NC” in the subject header along with a phone number you can be reached at in the email. I will see everyone who can make it on Friday.
