We also encourage you to consider sending one or more "Sanity-Grams" – a lapel pin and a sticker along with a short cover letter stating (y)our position and purpose – to people who would benefit from receiving a tangible expression of your support for an evenhanded two-state solution for Palestine and Israel.

And, please, don't forget to encourage your family, friends and colleagues to visit us and lend their support to this important cause.

Sanity-Grams (ORDER SANITY-GRAMS | TOPICS | PAGE TOP)

Send a pin and a sticker along with an explanatory cover letter to a friend, family member, your congressional delegation (we can tell who they are from your zip code), President Bush, media, community leaders and others. You can do it yourself (using our downloadable cover letter if you like) or we can do it for you via our Online Store (you pay the cost of the pin and sticker; we pay the cost of the letter and postage – U.S. addresses only).

Even if your recipients don't come around immediately, at least they'll know that there are sane people "out there". And, odds are, the pin and sticker will still end up with someone who will display them proudly.
