As our immigrant communities are being targeted and legal processes are changing day to day, families are struggling to pay their bills and keep a roof over their heads. We know how hopeless it can feel to watch those in power play with people’s lives with impunity and not be able to immediately stop them ourselves.
But there are real, concrete ways you can get involved today to make life easier for the folks who are at the most risk right now.
Please consider donating to our Emergency Fund. If the form to the right is not working, you can donate online HERE, or by mailing us a check. For more information about mailing a check, please scroll down this page to view instructions.
Here are some examples of what donating at different levels could do for someone:
$30 covers a pack of diapers for a new mom.
$50 can be the difference between having cell phone service or not.
$75 covers a month long Ventra pass for someone to use to get to and from work.
$200 covers a week of groceries for a family of four.
$520 covers the cost of applying for a work permit.
$1500 covers a month of rent for a family who cannot afford an apartment on their own.
Make a donation today.
Whatever level you are able to get involved at this year, we cannot express our gratitude enough! Whether it be your time, your energy, your resources, or your money that you give — you are an invaluable part of our network.
Please let us know if you have any questions at all.
We are so grateful to be in community with you.
