Dear Friends of MASCP,

This painting was given to the people of Madison and Wisconsin over 30 years
ago as our sistering relationship began in 1986.

Times have changed and now our mutual solidarity from South to North and North
to South is more important than ever as we organize together to continue to
challenge and change the very structures that oppress people on both sides of the
border.

With your support, in 2018 MASCP and U.S. El Salvador Sister Cities will continue to:

• Defend our basic human right to water and fight against mining (now again

     so important in Wisconsin)

• Organize through popular education and act with progressive local, national

     and Salvadoran groups, particularly those lead by youth

• Defend immigrants rights here in the U.S. and in El Salvador
• Support youth from Arcatao with university scholarships

From all of us at MASCP, we wish you a very Happy New Year, and thank you for being a part of sistering!
