Joint missions, boycotts, awards, media mentions, and a jazzy TV treat
From embarking on joint missions with eminent personalities and handing out awards to receiving media coverage and calling for boycotts — the Freedom From Religion Foundation gets an amazing amount accomplished in a single week.
