Amplify Voices of the Marginalized

Donation protected
Dear Friend,

Are you outraged by what is being said about women, about LGBTQIA people, about people of color and diverse cultures?

Are you feeling disappointed, or disillusioned, or terrified, or heartbroken?

Do you feel like you need to do something?

 So do we.

 The mission and work of Casa Libre are more important in these volatile times than ever before.

 In the face of uncertainty and conflict, Casa Libre is renewing and deepening its commitment to creating safe spaces and opportunities that amplify the voices of those most marginalized, endangered and at risk of being silenced. 

 We know that you share that commitment and today, more than ever, we need your help.

 Recently, we told you that our much-beloved Executive Director and co-founder Kristen Nelson was stepping down to dedicate herself more fully to her own art. To hire new leadership and ensure our continued operations, we need to raise $5,000 by the end of January. Please help us reach that goal with your donation to Casa Libre.     

 Donate now to our GoFundMe campaign or send your check to Casa Libre, 228 N. 4th Ave., Tucson, AZ 85705, and we'll add it to the total here.

 Join us in standing alongside artists who are continuing to create, and celebrate, and speak their truths even as doing so becomes more dangerous. Casa Libre will hold a welcoming space for them.

 Join us in standing up for people who are increasingly being targeted with hateful and violent speech and action because of their perceived otherness. Casa Libre will work to protect and empower them.

 Join us in meeting hatred, fear and divisiveness with unwavering love and solidarity.

 Thank you for your support. We can’t do this work without you.

Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful and joyous holiday season,

Casa Libre’s Board of Directors:

Lana Baldwin
Jill Brammer
Hannah Ensor
Laura Maher
Taylor Miller
Tom Moore
Sara Wolfe Vaughan
