Save the date: November 9, 2006
Well, it's only June right now, but since events always seem to pile up near the end of a work year, we figured it wasn't too early to get the word out. Please mark it down in your calendars: November 9, 2006 is the date of MITF's annual "Evening for Economic Justice".

As always, this year's event will commence at Focus: HOPE's wonderful facilities in Detroit.

Hardcopy save-the-date postcards will be going out in the mail very soon, and more detailed information will follow later in the summer/fall with the formal invitations. Keep an eye on the mail for those.
