Note from Chris: I rarely send out political email topics and make the exception only for candidates that have supported the LGBT Community is a monumental way. I want you to know how Bill Fazio has supported the LGBT Community. When Bill was a young prosecutor in the San Francisco DA’s office, he successfully prosecuted the highly publicized first “gay bashers” trial in San Francisco of second degree murder. He convicted a predator of first degree murder who was preying upon gay teenage runaways and continued to successfully convict other “gay bashers” while at the DA’s office. No other candidate has the the same track record of successfully charging and convicting criminals who murdered members of the gay community in San Francisco. Bill offered his assistance to CUAV and others to help craft the “Hate Crimes Enhancement” legislation that protects the LGBT community today.

| My emails cover a broad spectrum of events: non-profit organization events, San Francisco community events, political events, and some events that are for profit but almost always for someone who has given and or donated in a meaningful way to non-profits. I send out a wide variety of event announcements that attract a broad spectrum of San Franciscans and Bay Area residents. Some events attract specific communities of San Francisco and others attract a broad spectrum of communities. I send out announcements for events that are free to expensive. |
| I provide this service to enable organizations to save on mailing costs so more of their dollars can go toward client services and to give more people the opportunity to attend events. Most importantly I hope that you enjoy the announcements and opportunities that the events provide. I hope that my email list saves you time and informs you about events and organizations you may not have heard about before. —Chris |
