Red Mountain Land Protectors (RMLP) is a group of Shivwits who are standing up to protect their sacred land from a developer’s plans to build golf courses, a hotel, and a stadium. This land is not only culturally significant, but may also contain burial sites and irreplaceable natural resources. As a supporter of RMLP, We are helping to raise funds so they can continue their fight to preserve what matters most to their community and to all of us who care about justice and the environment.
The urgency is real: the developer has already started placing survey markers and refuses to disclose the contract or timeline. We fear that bulldozers could arrive at any moment, threatening to destroy sacred sites and disrupt the lives of countless desert animals. The community is facing a terrible injustice as big business corporations seek to exploit Red Mountain, using more water than our city can provide and pushing out local businesses. Promises of economic development often come at the cost of higher taxes, lost habitats, and a diminished quality of life for everyone except the wealthy few.
To stop the developer, RMLP needs funds to hire a lawyer, bring in an archaeologist, and cover all expenses related to fighting this battle. Your support will help us stand up for the land, the people, and the future of our community. Please join us in this fight—every donation, share, and show of solidarity makes a difference. Together, we can protect Red Mountain and ensure it remains a place of beauty, history, and life for generations to come.
