    Kerry team helps boost funding for convention By Rick Klein, Boston Globe
    According to the host committee's official website, New England's regional carpenters' union has given more than $100,000 to Boston 2004, and local affiliates of the plumbers, roofers, and pipefitters unions have given less than $50,000 each. The host committee is hoping to close much of the rest of its fund-raising gap through private-sector unions and expects public-sector unions to give, as Menino's talks with those unions lead to more settlements.
