A brief reportback from today’s Running Down the Walls event in Denver:

This year’s RDTW 5k was the most successful that we have hosted thus far! Over 50 participants made this run the largest ever, and we raised over $1200 in donations collected at the run. With other pledges that are slated to come in, we’re expecting to have raised over $1500 with this year’s Running Down the Walls.

If you couldn’t make it today, but want to still donate, please contact us at denverabc@riseup.net, or drop us a donation at our WEPAY page: https://www.wepay.com/donations/denver-anarchist-black-cross* We have a couple shirts left over from today’s run, so we’ll throw in a free shirt while supplies last for any person who donates within the next two weeks.

The funds raised today will be divided as follows:

$300- Anarchist Black Cross Federation Warchest

$600- Denver Anarchist Black Cross Warchest (Stipends for Mutulu Shakur and Siddique Hasan)

And the rest will be divided between adding new prisoners to our warchest/stipend payments and expenses for this year’s North American Anarchist Black Cross Conference, happening in Denver October 12-14.

Thanks to everyone who made this run so successful this year. We look forward to seeing you at our other major annual fundraiser, Martyr’s Ball in November, and next year’s run.

Solidarity and struggle!

DABC CREW
