Chicago city-wide wireless Digital Inclusion

From Michael Maranda Chicago Community Benefits Campaign - Sept.’06

Context:    The City of Chicago is set to release an RFP for
city-wide wireless Internet.  Community groups are mobilizing to
make sure that the Digital Inclusion provisions of the RFP are
more than lip-service, and that appropriate community partnerships
are formed for the long term.    Community Technology is the path
to Economic Opportunity and Civic Empowerment.   Our time is now.
Please spread the word on the following appeal.  We can use
in-kind donations as well as cash.  We’d also welcome anyone ready
to roll-up their sleeves to build this effort.    We want to have
meetings in every community of Chicago.
