"PROMOTE THE VOTE CAMPAIGN"
SEEKS VOLUNTEERS/PARTICIPANTS

The Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Community Services Center would like
to invite you to volunteer in a voter registration project.  The project is
called "Promote the Vote Campaign"  with the goal of maximizing the
participation of lesbian/gay/bisexual voters in the 1996 Presidential and
fall general elections by registering new voters and mobilizing all
registered voters.

To accomplish this goal, the Gay & Lesbian Center is seeking volunteers
in a nonpartisan outreach effort for the 1996 elections.  We face the
undeniable reality, after the 1994 elections, of both federal and local
political landscapes that have left vulnerable our communities all across
the country.  Through our combined efforts, we will have the
capacity to reach, and hopefully result, in the mobilization of hundreds
of thousands of voters.

Some of the activities that we're planning to do include voter registration
through tabling, the mail and through point of purchase boxes, conducting
voter pledge drive, mobilizing Get Out the Vote (GOTV) pledgers through
phone bankings, door-to-door visits, etc.

If you have some time to volunteer or would like to get involved in any
way you can, please call the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center's Public
Policy Dept. at (213) 860-7350 or e-mail us at "gaylesbla@aol.com."
