WILPF Pittsburgh, with the support of World Beyond War, posted the following quote on a billboard on a busy street for one month:
3% of U.S. military spending could end starvation worldwide.
The ad agency Lamar created and posted the billboard. We were so successful at raising money from local activists that we were able to have it posted on Washington Blvd. for a month, and we still had enough funds to purchase a second month in another location—coming soon!
We have made smaller matching signs that will be posted around university campuses in the near future.
