Captain Milosz Kaczorowski (front) with crew Chris Mayer, Tom Rogers and Tate Furr departed San Diego on July 11, 2019 at 12:11 pm, headed for Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii! Bon Voyage!
 
The voyage will take 3-4 weeks, so expect to see them in Hilo the first week of August.
 
We need your help as we sail across the Pacific!
DONATE NOW <http://www.vfpgoldenruleproject.org/donate-and-help/>
Our goal is to raise $20,000 while the Golden Rule sails to Hawaii. This will assure that we have money for a captain, dock space and other operational expenses while in Hawaii.

We are so thankful for our many supporters.
Humboldt Bay VFP Chapter 56 continues to donate to the Golden Rule. San Diego VFP Chapter 93 continues with its monthly sustained donations of $100 with a challenge to other chapters to do the same.
“There is lots of excitement and many people are stepping up to help make the Golden Rule voyages successful,” said Helen Jaccard, Golden Rule Project Manager.
Send us your favorite photos from our voyages to vfpgoldenruleproject at gmail.com! We would love to post them on our website and Facebook page.

VFP GOLDEN RULE PROJECT
 <http://www.vfpgoldenrule.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/vfp_header_logo.png>
The Golden Rule is a project of Veterans For Peace. We aim to advance Veterans For Peace opposition to nuclear weapons and war, and to do so in a dramatic fashion.
 
We have recovered and restored the original peace ship, the Golden Rule, that set sail in 1958 to stop nuclear testing in the atmosphere, and which inspired the many peace makers and peace ships that followed.
 
The reborn Golden Rule is sailing once more, to show that nuclear abolition is possible, and that bravery and tenacity can overcome militarism.
 
The Golden Rule crew spreads the word about the continuing dangers of nuclear power, and the poisoning of the air, water and soil from the entire nuclear cycle, from uranium mining to the disposal of nuclear waste.
 
Volunteers Needed
With many educational stops, we need a lot of help, all hands on deck and there are many roles to play!
Organizers, authors, public speakers, a web master, photographers, videographers will all be needed and appreciated.
If you live in Hawaii, we also need help to organize events and seed money for each stop.  To volunteer, please contact Helen Jaccard at 206-992-6364 or send an email tovfpgoldenruleproject at gmail.com <mailto:vfpgoldenruleproject at gmail.com>.
 
RESOLUTIONS IN SUPPORT OF TREATY ON THE PROHIBITION OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS
Cities, counties and states are adopting resolutions to support the U.N. Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. For example, the California Legislature approved this resolution: California TPNW Resolution <http://www.vfpgoldenruleproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/California-TPNW-Resolution.docx> Here’s the announcement <https://www.psr.org/blog/2018/08/28/california-votes-to-support-u-n-nuclear-weapon-ban-treaty-restrict-presidential-authority-for-nuclear-strike/>. Los Angeles and Baltimore have passed similar resolutions. Please encourage your city, county and state to do the same!
