Manning * Raise awareness about the recent arrest and charges against Manning *<br />

Coordinate the activities of nonprofits and individual activists working internationally to<br />

support Manning * Collect funds necessary to ensure high-quality legal counsel necessary for<br />

a vigorous defense * Provide supporters with accurate, updated information as the trial<br />

progresses * Provide prisoner support for Manning throughout his imprisonment We are an<br />

autonomous network of supporters with no official ties to political parties. We are not<br />

associated with Wikileaks and we are not a division of any larger nonprofit entity.<br />
