MACH'S PASSING
Sadly, our activities have ceased as our co-founder and leader Mach Arom passed away recently. There will be a memorial service in NYC on September 30th. We have decided to wrap up our activities and reflect on all that we have learned from this experience and this great man who helped so many people. The latest Phuket Project work was a school roof in Phuket which was finished recently. We will update the site with new photos soon and if you have anything to contribute, please contact Maya.

NEW YORK CITY MEETINGS
Our meeting on January 14th, 2005, was very productive. Big thanks to everyone who attended! We were even on the news that night, on Fox at 10pm.

FUNDRAISING AND OUTREACH
Various initiatives are already underway.
Sign up to volunteer with one of our project teams.
Let us know if you would like to lead an initiative, and I'll be more than happy to add you and your group to the list.

PUBLICITY / FLYERS / FUNDRAISERS
A reminder that there are 17 nights of fundraisers in New York over the course of the next month. Most of the proceeds from the door at the various events will go directly to the Phuket Project. Please try to attend, and tell friends. These should be a lot of fun and obviously, they will benefit a good cause. More information is available here.
We also have a bevy of flyers that we can begin to use to spread the word about the Phuket Project. Thanks to Helen Yang for the design and Joe Mindak for the printing. We need people willing to hand these out in their neighborhoods and towns, and if youd like to come by and pick up a set of flyers, please feel free to stop by at Foote Cone & Belding, 100 West 33rd Street @ Sixth Avenue, New York City, New York. You can ask for Mach Arom or Emily Lepore.(map)
