How can I participate or support the conference?
There are many ways to participate:
- Financial contributions: We hope that this conference can be accessible to all people. In order to provide scholarships and to keep the conference fees low, we are seeking donations from program sponsors in the range of $250 to $1,000. Checks can be made payable to Cherokee Park United Church, which will serve as the fiscal agent for the conference. Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowable by law.
- Conference planning: FREC is currently meeting every week to plan this conference. We meet from 9 to 10 am every Tuesday at Jerabek's Coffeehouse, 63 W. Winifred St. on St. Paul's West Side. We always welcome additional partners to the planning and preparation of the conference.
- Spreading the word: We are looking for partners who would be willing to spread the word about the conference to their stakeholders.
- Volunteering the days of the event: We will need volunteers to help out on the days of the conference.
