Nice Bumperstickers!

    Have you ever seen a car on the road with bumperstickers carrying messages like "I Love Mountains," "Support a Living Wage," and other things you agree with and thought "Wow - I wish I could tell that person about KFTC"?

    Well, now you can!

    For the last three years, members of the Central KY Chapter have distributed these cards a few at a time in their communities. 

    They keep them in their wallets and purses and as they're walking and run into a car with bumperstickers they like, they simply slip one of the cards under the car's windshield wiper and continue on with the rest of their day.

    In all, Central KY Members have distributed well over a thousand cards in total.  A handful of new members have actually come out to chapter meetings with a bumpersticker card being the only contact they'd had from KFTC (with the card in-hand at our door.)

    Mostly, it serves to remind friends, allies, members, and others that KFTC is out in the community, active, and always open to new people becoming involved. 

    "Frankly, it's a really clever way of reaching out to people," says David Anderson, a Central KY KFTC Leader, and someone who's distributed many dozens of bumpersticker cards.  "It's a compliment to the people receiving them, it's smart, and if we can get a few new members and lots of constant awareness out of something this simple and easy, well that's just great."

    You can download a simple statewide version of a Bumpersticker Card here.  You can get a PDF with the front side of the card HERE and the back side HERE
