STAND Fast

Today is STAND Fast!
This is it: a day when people all over the world will be giving up luxury items and with the money they saved, giving it STAND Fast. Three dollars will protect one Darfuri woman from being raped for a month. Five dollars will protect a whole family in Eastern Burma. What better way to celebrate Beedle the Bard coming out tomorrow than by participating an event as part of a Dumbledore's Army for the real world?! For questions please email http://us.mc555.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=standfast@thehpalliance.org
Oftentimes, it feels like a huge barrier separates us and those who are most vulnerable. Let's treat such a barrier as if it were no more than the barrier at Platform Nine and Three Quarters when Wizards tread before it. Let's walk through that barrier and connect with people across the world who need our support. People who need to know that their plight is being witnessed. And that we won't stop fighting for them.
Let us send our love through this barrier today and fund the protection of these people's lives. Please give today at thehpalliance.org/civilianprotection
Also, if you buy a copy of the Wizard Rock comp Jingle Spells today all the proceeds are going to STAND Fast.

Thank you so deeply. Let's renew our spirits and the spirit of this world. Let's do what we can for STAND Fast. Thank you and may the Fawkes Be With You,
Andrew SlackHarry Potter Alliance
