The Rescue in Athens MOGULS

As many of you know by now, The Rescue is all about Moguls — What we mean when we use the word mogul is this: An influential leader in politics, art, music, science, education, etc. who can use that influence to affect change. So, today I e-mailed over one hundred moguls in Greece — of 300 members of the Greek Parliament, I e-mailed every single one in constituency Athens A or B personally. As members of the Greek government, Hellenic MPs have the power to rescue child soldiers in Uganda and the DR Congo through an international voice. BUT, without your support they will never show up to The Rescue.

So, these are the top political moguls of Greek Parliament we REALLY want to show up on April 25th:

Georgios Papandreou, Chairman of PASOK, gpapandreou@parliament.gr

Dora Bakoyannis, New Democracy, Minister of Foreign Affairs – dorawebteam@gmail.com

Dimitris Avramopoulos, New Democracy, Minister of Health and Social Solidarity – avramopoulos@otenet.gr

Antonios Bezas, Deputy Minister of Economy and Finance, a.bezas@d-mnec.gr

Nikolaos-Georgios Dendias, Minister of Justice, dendias2@otenet.gr

Constantinos Karamanlis, Prime Minister – Chairman of New Democracy, ndpress1@nd.gr

Miltiadis Varvitsiotis, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, mvarvitsiotis@parliament.gr

Dimitrios Sioufas, President of the Hellenic Parliament, dimgsioufas@parliament.gr

Ionnis Papathanassiou, Minister of Economy and Finance, info@papathanassiou.gr

Nikolaos Legas, Deputy Minister of Economy and Finance, legas@parliament.gr, legas@lar.forthnet.gr

Georgios Papageorgiou, Deputy Minister for Health and Social Solidarity, gpapageorgiou@parliament.gr

Theodoros Kassimis, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, kassimis@parliament.gr, theodoros@kassimis.gr, kassimis@telehouse.gr

Use your voice to get these political moguls to show up on April 25 in Syntagma Square — Send them an e-mail inviting them to join us.

Also, you can find the political moguls in your constituency at http://www.parliament.gr

So Many Moguls, So Little Time

Today’s Goal: FIND MOGULS.

The maker’s of Invisible Children just posted a new video, to tell you how to get the right people to The Rescue. Watch the video.

Even though our event here in Athens is going to be a little bit different, there is no reason why we can’t invite as many influential artists, politicians, scientists, educators, musicians and actors as possible to stand with us in Syntagma Square.

So — Who do you want show up on April 25, 2009 to support the Rescue of Joseph Kony’s child soldiers?

Leave me a comment with the names of Greeks who are important to YOU, and I will do everything in my power to contact them and invite them to The Rescue in Athens. Once I do, I will tell you how to contact them as well.
