Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Hi folks, I got this email from Allison Ezell at PETA - if anyone can help, please contact Allison directly at PETA ( 757-943-7452,AllisonE ), and feel free to post back to the list to coordinate others to join you. Thanks!Tammy Allison Ezell [AllisonE] Wednesday, August 17, 2005 9:32 AM Hi Tammy, I got your contact information from Stephanie Wood. We’ve just gotten word of a very important opportunity near you and Stephanie thought you might be able to help out. J. Crew has started selling fur this fall, after years of pledging never to touch the stuff. We are gearing up for a no-holds-barred campaign against the company to persuade them to stop selling fur. One of the things we have found to be very effective in corporate campaigns is trying to engage the family of the CEO. Mothers, daughters, wives and sons have great influence. If we can get to them and convince them to talk to the CEO, we just may avoid a long campaign battle. Peggy Drexler, the wife of J. Crew CEO, has just written a new book and is making a handful of appearances for book signings, talks, what have you. We want to go to all of these and politely engage her, have a portable DVD player, show her fur farm footage and ask her to ask her husband to take fur out of J.Crew’s fall line, or maybe just ask her questions during the Q and A. She has a slew of events coming up in San Fran and we are hoping to have someone at each one: August 30, 2005 - 7:00 p.m. Book Passage Corte Madera, CA August 31, 2005 - 12:30 p.m. Stacey's San Francisco, CA Wednesday, August 31, 2005, 4:30 pm Reception and Book Signing with Dr. Peggy Drexler World Trade Club, One Ferry Plaza, San Francisco. Contact JCF, 415.777.0411, info September 1, 2005 - 7:00 p.m. A Different Light San Francisco, CA Would you be available to help us out on any of these days by going to any of the events and possibly speaking with Peggy Drexler? I know you have a large network…perhaps you could ask around? It’s so very important that we reach out to her constantly during these early states, as it may prevent a long and costly campaign. Thanks so much for all you do. I look forward to hearing from you!
