The children and families being torn apart at the border effects us all and changes the very nature of our nation.
We are raising money to be dispersed to the following organizations, who do the hard work of protecting both immigrants rights and our constitution every day.
CAIR coalition
WE KEEP FAMILIES TOGETHER
...by working with and for the immigrant men, women, and children facing detention and deportation. Our services include legal representation, educational outreach, impact and advocacy work, and the training of attorneys who defend immigrants in the immigration and criminal justice arenas.

The ACLU
For nearly 100 years, the ACLU has been our nation’s guardian of liberty, working in courts, legislatures, and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties that the Constitution and the laws of the United States guarantee everyone in this country.

CASA in Action
CASA in Action endorses candidates that advance its membership’s priorities and facilitates greater engagement of Latinos and voters of color in elections. In addition to organizing multiple campaigns and actions for immigration reform, family reunification, and economic justice at the state, local, and federal level, CASA in Action mobilized thousands of Latinos and other voters of color to the polls.

LEGAL AID JUSTICE CENTER
The Legal Aid Justice Center has been providing legal representation for low-income individuals in Virginia since 1967. Our mission is to seek equal justice for all by solving clients’ legal problems, strengthening the voices of low-income communities, and rooting out the inequities that keep people in poverty.

Together Rising
In a world where crises abound and heartache is in every community, people who want to help often don’t know where to turn. Together Rising is where to turn. Together Rising transforms heartache into action.
Whether it’s pulling children out of the sea outside the refugee camps in Greece, helping abandoned kids on the streets in Indianapolis, establishing the first opioid recovery home for pregnant teens in New Hampshire, building a maternal health wing in Port-au-Prince, providing a single mother access to breast cancer treatment, or keeping a foster family’s heat on in Texas — Together Rising identifies what is breaking the hearts of our givers as they look around their world and their community, and then we connect our givers’ generosity with the people and organizations who are effectively addressing that critical need.

Tahirih Justice Center
Tahirih Justice Center stands alone as the only national, multi-city organization providing a broad range of direct legal services, policy advocacy, and training and education to protect immigrant women and girls fleeing violence.

Funds will be distributed evenly. We have set this up to make donating to all easy... please feel free to reach out and donate individually, take a look at what they do and see how you can help!!
As an update.... because we want to disperse to these different important causes, I will be withdrawing the money and dispersing it equally via ACH (There websites) . I will update the page and group with receipts.
I am working with a group The Peoples Caravan and Indivisble Winchester, to raise funds for these organizations as an option for anyone who would like to make one donation to be split up.
If you would like to donate directly to any one of these organizations, that is also encouraged!
