Anyone interested in participating in Pennies for Peace - Oklahoma may send a request for information to league@norman.ok.lwvnet.org.

Our goal is to combine the collections of our many campaigns and have children present their pennies to Greg Mortenson in a special presentation during his public lecture at OU on April 22. If enough Oklahoma groups participate, we hope to collectively raise the $35,000 needed to build a CAI-sponsored school. --Mary Francis and Brenda Wheelock, Co-Chairs, Pennies for Peace - Oklahoma
