I support my immigrant neighbors!

UPDATE: We are going to press on Monday, March 6th, so we are not accepting any more donations as we can't get your name on the ad after today.  However, feel free to add your name to this site using the comment feature, if you like.  Please look for the ad in this week's Advocate and Beacon and the March edition of Al Punto.  Spread the word and buy lots of copies!



OLD:
Join us!  We stand with our immigrant friends and neighbors.  Sign your name to stand with us. 

We plan to take out a two-page ad in both the Advocate News and Mendocino Beacon: one side will be the poster in the photo and one side will be the letter below, in English and Spanish, with signatures of all who want show support.  

Donations are very much appreciated to cover the cost of the ad, which is $2,200 per paper.  We hope to reach our goal by the end of February. 

However, if you'd like your name on the letter but can't give, that's fine too--just put your name, profession, and city in the comment section.  

We have asked for and received permission from the artist, Shepard Fairey.  Once the papers come out, anyone who buys it can instantly have a poster.   Click here to download this print and more, for free.  

Please spread the word!   

Not from the Mendocino coast? Start it in your hometown!

 Thank you! ¡Gracias!
~Marina, Chad, and Amigos
