Kevin J. Patel has been a tireless advocate for climate justice, food sovereignty, and youth leadership in Los Angeles and beyond. As a founder, organizer, and voice for change, Kevin has dedicated his life to fighting for our planet and uplifting frontline communities. Now, he and his family urgently need our help.
A close member of Kevin’s family is currently facing unjust targeting by ICE, a heartbreaking and terrifying situation that has thrown their lives into uncertainty. Due to privacy and safety concerns, we cannot share more details, but this situation has serious implications for their ability to work, access healthcare, and stay together as a family.
What We’re Raising Funds For:
• Legal defense and immigration representation
• Housing and essential family expenses
• Lost income due to work disruption
• Emergency support to help them stay safe, stable, and together
Kevin has shown up for our communities time and time again. He’s spoken truth to power, led grassroots campaigns, and poured his energy into building a more just and livable future. Let’s show up for him now.
No one should face deportation, separation, or criminalization simply for existing. Every dollar helps, and every share brings us closer to the support Kevin and his loved ones urgently need.
Let’s surround Kevin with the love, solidarity, and resources he deserves.
In community and gratitude,
the intersectional environmentalist community
