Women's March New Orleans

Donation protected
Hello everyone!  Thank you so much for your donations and enthusiasm for this event!  I am working in conjunction with the organizer for the Millennials March; we are pooling all donations for the adequate permits and police escorts.

We have had such a positive response, that it looks like we are going to go over 1,000 attendees!  That is fantastic!  However, once we go over 1,000 people, the permit costs increase significantly, and essentials such as porto-potties and a professional clean up crew are required. 

I am increasing the Go Fund Me goal to $10,000 to cover these expenses.  If you are willing and able, please contribute what you can, even a few dollars will make a difference!  We will have more updates tomorrow regarding final permit fees.  If there are extra funds, we are looking at renting time at Duncan Plaza.

Thank you all again for your efforts!  Event description below:

Saturday, January 21st, 2017
We will meet at Washington Square Park (700 Elysian Fields Ave) in New Orleans at 1 p.m. At 2 p.m. we will begin our march down Elysian Fields Ave. and turn right on Decatur Street. We will cross Canal and continue on Tchoupitoulas St., then turning right up Poydras Street. We will make a right on Loyola Ave. and continue left onto Perdido Street to congregate in front of City Hall.

This is a combined event with Millennials March and March for Louisiana.

We are working on scheduling speakers, additional details to follow. See link below for a go fund me page to gather the $10,000 funds required for permit fees for Washington Square Park, police support, crowd insurance, porta potty rentals, and clean up crews. A $5 - $20 per person donation is appreciated!
