Community Reinvestment Day

by Patty

Hi All,

I am very pleased to let you know about an exciting event that is happening on Saturday, March 9, 2013, in Winchester MA. We are having a “Community Reinvestment Day – A Discussion of Innovative and Thoughtful Approaches Toward Balancing Money, Society and the Environment.” We are fortunate to be joined by both an impressive group of experts for a 90-minute panel discussion on socially responsible investing, and three courageous advocates for a public bank in MA who will give a very thought provoking hour-long presentation. There will also be exhibits from organizations like the Sustainable Business Network of MA, Rainbow Solutions, and many others. We will be offering everyone a light lunch of homemade soup and conversation, as well.

This event, inspired in part by CRY 2013 (Community Reinvestment Year 2013), located at http://wiki.occupyboston.org/wiki/CRY_2013, is being co-sponsored by Occupy Winchester and Sustainable Winchester and is taking place in Metcalf Hall at the Winchester Unitarian Society. We hope to have a good turnout from all over the Boston area as well as from Winchester. We really hope that you will be able to join us!

Here is a one-page flyer, with more details and the location of the event. Please feel free to circulate this to anyone you think might be interested.
