Portland Press Efforts Need Cash
Dylan Williams has sent along a missive from the Portland 'Zine Symposium announcing their fund raising drive. I'm not familiar with the organization, not even a little bit, but Williams is an upstanding member of the comics community and I'd tend to take him at his word that this is a worthwhile group. Oddly, T. Edward Bak, another fine Portland-area cartoonist, has written in imploring people to join the Independent Publishing Resource Center, another group with which I have no personal familiarity but sounds great. It seems to me a lot of groups having suffered through 18 months of severe Recession are going to start coming up dry in terms of regular fund raising goals, so I'd keep an eye out on such organizations in your area.
