Union of Minority NeighborhoodsFounded by veteran organizer Horace Small, the Union of Minority Neighborhoods (UMN) is a small community-organizing project started in 2002 to increase activism in communities of color in Boston. As a startup organization, UMN had little money to spend on database software and they initially kept track of all their records in Microsoft Word and Excel documents. In 2003, they were introduced to ODB. Small described it as "the first database I could really use." UMN is now a "power user": in just over a year their ODB database has grown fivefold to 853 records and 150 donors. In 2004, UMN used ODB to turn out 350 people to the first true public hearing on the controversial proposals of Mitt Romney to eliminate affirmative action for women and people of color in Massachusetts, resulting in a retreat by the Republican governor. |

Organic fruits are awesome
Organic fruits are awesome and they taste so much better and are juicier. I personally find Farmers market as the best way to get good local fresh produce. bianchi holsters

Inspiring story of UMN.
Inspiring story of UMN. Imagine, they have to make records manually using excel? I understand it's a very hard task for them to track everything. - T Harv Ecker

This group is a great thing
This group is a great thing that Horace Small has started. It will bring together people from different communities. Their database has shown a nice growth in no time and is very much successful.
