Stand with Jill: Fired for Protesting
Donation protected
One of our community members, Jill Kelly, who has helped to create and organize Americans for Democracy here in St. Cloud, was recently fired from her job due to a news article that cited her place of work, and city of residence in their piece about the protests being organized the past couple of months. Her employer didn't want to be affiliated with any potential negative attention, so they let her go.
Jill is now unemployed just for organizing and attending peaceful protests. I would like to ask that anyone able to, please contribute what you can to help her through this time until she can get a new job. Like most of us, she worked paycheck to paycheck (or direct deposit to direct deposit) and as such is now facing major financial difficulty and won't be able to afford basic monthly necessities, let alone pay her bills.
