| Creating awareness of the landmine problem is something
we can all do to help address the issue. Below are links to materials
that will help mobilize your community to take action.
The Letter to Your MP/Congressional member is a way to inform the Member of Parliament/Congress responsible for your area that the landmine issue is one that is very important to you. It will help keep this important cause top of mind, especially if our elected officials hear from many of us. All you have to do is click on the link and it will open your word processor so you can edit the letter. The Press Release is a way to get our message out through the media. By sending it to your local newspapers, and TV and radio stations, you will be setting the stage for broader coverage. Additionally, you and/or your organization may also be profiled, creating a residual effect for your own efforts. All you have to do is click on the link and it will open your word processor so you can edit the press release. We strongly encourage you to take advantage of both these tools!
