Tools for
Peace
Despite an official U.S. stance
of hostility toward Nicaragua and
its current government, many
North Americans have supported
efforts to rebuild that Central
American nation since the conclu
sion of the successful struggle
against dictator Anastasio
Somoza five years ago.
Campaigns to raise material aid
for Nicaragua have taken place
nationally—most recently by Ox
fam America's Tools for Peace
Campaign. In Eugene, the Coun
cil for Human Rights in Latin
America is sponsoring a local
'Tools for Peace" effort, focusing
on several types of donations:
tools for agriculture, carpentry
and mechanics; school supplies;
and money donations for a port
able saw mill.
The sawmill, of immense value
in the development of remote
areas, will be donated to IRENA,
the Nicaraguan Natural Resources
and Forestry Agency, as a gift
from Oregonians. A large part of
the funds for its purchase will be
raised by a summer-long series of
Sunday evening benefits at the
Keystone Cafe, 395 W. 5th. The
first benefit dinner is Sunday
night, June 24th, from 5:30 to
9:30.
Eugene "Tools for Peace" dona
tions will go to several groups in
Nicaragua. Part of the tools, ma
chinery and spare parts (which, it
is emphasized, can be of any kind)
will be used in local "tool banks"
for small farmers, established by
Nicaragua's National Union of
Small Farmers. AMNLAE, the
women's association of Nicar
agua, will also provide basic tools
for rural women to help them start
family and community gardening
projects. Educational supplies
(from pencils and chalk to type
writers and audiovisual equip
ment) will go to schools. Some
materials collected from dormi
tory, fraternity and sorority
residents during the past Spring
quarter are already on their way.
The 'Tools for Peace" Cam
paign is just one of the many on
going activities organized and
sponsored by the Council for Hu
man Rights in Latin America, a
nonprofit, multi-ethnic organiza
tion that has been working for
more than nine years to educate
the people of the U.S. about
human rights issues in Latin
America. The Council has spon
sored programs such as the
Women's Tour to Nicaragua, nu
merous Latin American cultural
events, Spanish lessons, con
ferences, speakers, a monthly
newsletter, and weekly "Hard
Times Lunches," to name a few.
They are currently involved in a
petition drive to place a resolution
on Eugene's general-election ballot
calling for an end to U.S. military
aid to Central America.
Donations of tools, supplies, or
money may be brought to the
Council’s Eugene office, 1236 Kin
caid St. Or for more information,
call them at 484-5867.
