[Green] [possibly spam] Re: IPL Membership

[Dawn Hewitt]

I will take a stab at it tomorrow as a Solstice project (I’m taking the day off work) and will ask for help when I need it—which I will. 

Thank you, George!  And Rebecca for getting this ball rolling. —dawn

I have attached the certification form, and we definitely seem to qualify. We can also join Ohio IPL as a Covenant Congregation; they ask for a donation based on the congregation's budget. That form is attached as well. There is no mandate for a congregational liaison, though the organization recommends having a Faithful Advocacy Captain, someone who works with the congregation to advance federal climate policy (rather as George and Dave have done with CCL).
