Benefit Coffeehouse for Iraqi Students
Saturday, April 2, 2011, 7:00-9:00

The North Manchester FOR and the Scout Fuller Fund for Social Justice will host a benefit coffeehouse on April 2 at the Manchester Church of the Brethren to support two Iraqi students studying at Manchester College. Hajer Dlame will be a senior next fall and Yousra Kamoona will be a junior. Both women are studying computer science and are deeply involved in campus life at the college.

The coffeehouse will feature a tribute to Ken Brown (founder of the local FOR), Middle Eastern food, music by Greg Clark, Paul Fry-Miller, David Hupp, Brian Kruschwitz and LuAnne Harley. We'll also offer a silent auction that includes items such as a Riverbridge Electric service call, a peace pole, computer service calls, and hostas from the McFadden Garden. Contact Julie Garber if you have a quality auction item to contribute.

Suggested monetary contributions for the evening range from $5-$25 at the door, purchase of an auction item, or a single contribution to the FOR (write Iraqi Student Project on the memo line). Join us for an evening of music, food, and fellowship, and participate in a small way in rebuilding Iraq.
