Texas Gov. Abbott has been shuttling asylum-seeking Latin American migrants to DC from the border for the past four months as part of a racist and cruel publicity stunt.

The DC, Maryland, and Virginia community has shown up daily to welcome folks and to provide food, housing, transportation, clothes, legal assessment, and medical support, among other essentials.

The buses keep on coming, and we are asking for your support!

These hungry travelers deserve to be welcomed with humanity and dignity. As such, we are taking great care to ensure all the meals we prepare for them are culturally relevant, delicious and nutritious. Our meals include fresh vegetables, fruits, grains, and proteins.

People are hungry, and we need to act with urgency. A nourishing meal provides hope, a sense of humanity and reassurance that someone is there to support you through difficult times.

All donations help provide meals for folks in need. Even a $3, $5, or $10 gift makes an enormous difference. Any amount can help us provide a meal for someone as they arrive in our city.

If you are not in a place to make a monetary donation, helping us spread this page and the word of our fundraiser is also highly beneficial to the cause. Please share through your social media channels, email, and word-of-mouth. Helping spread awareness is also a big help in these efforts.
