Friends of Joseph Diliberti

Joseph Diliberti
PLEASE HELP JOSEPH KEEP HIS LAND

Joseph's property will be sold at public auction sometime in March, 2011. As his friends, we are collecting contributions to allow us to satisfy the $65,000+ weed abatement lien to prevent a stranger (or San Diego County) from
taking Joseph's land away at the auction.
You can read more about Joseph's plight by going to the Chaparal Institute's
 Help Joseph Diliberti page.

Please help Joseph keep his land by making a contribution to Joseph's Land Fund by selecting the level of sponsorship you would like to offer below. The funds will be used exclusively to satisfy the lien or allow us to buy the property at the public auction.


By using the pull down menu to the right,
please select the sponsorship level you
would like to offer. All funds will be used
to help Joseph retain ownership of his land.
These contributions are not tax-deductible.
