NO Rat Ward?!

RE: ratward shut down.

You may have heard that the ratward crew were recently evicted from our building...
of course it has to do with money (and other stuff like property damages)...
BUT after meeting with our lawyer (who offered his help for free!) and negotiating with our landlord it has been decided that we may remain in the building only if we can pay $2000 by early April. Collectively we can cover most of the amount...working overtime, borrowing money, selling off belongings....but we still need help! we want to try whatever we can do to help raise the money to save our home!
