Call for volunteers: Help us with the GNU Press shop

People around the world are eagerly waiting to receive their GNU Press shop orders, and we need a little help sending everything out. Would you be willing to donate a little of your time to support the FSF's work while chatting and enjoying snacks with other free software supporters?

This will be the first time that we organize a volunteering event since going remote at the end of August 2024, and we miss seeing your lovely faces! We hope you'll be able to stop by, even if only for an hour.

What: Packing and labeling GNU Press shop orders and mailing associate member mail.

Where: Lobby at 101 Arch St, Boston MA, 02110. The closest MBTA station is Downtown Crossing.

When: Friday, December 6, 14:00-18:00; Wednesday, December 11, 15:00-18:00; Tuesday, December 17, 14:00-18:00.

Why: Volunteering is an excellent way to directly support the FSF's work, have a great time meeting other free software enthusiasts, and swap stories. If you volunteer, you might make some friends -- and you will certainly make some memories. We will provide gratis snacks and drinks.

If you can help, please reply to this email and let us know what time(s) you'd like to volunteer. Want to help, but these dates don't work for you? Email us what days work best for you and we we will find a time for you to help.

Even if you are only able to volunteer for an hour, we are incredibly appreciative of your kindness and support.

We're looking forward to having you again!
