Dear John, For centuries we have been building alternative economies, local resiliency, and mutual aid networks to deal with the interwoven crises of economic, racial, social, and climate injustice. At Climate Justice Alliance all of this means providing mutual aid and support that puts resources directly into the hands of those impacted, because those closest to these issues have the solutions.
“Our communities are situated to respond to this pandemic because
they are rooted in something the extractive economy isn’t: genuine relationships. We have trust, experience, power, and we can deliver. But we can't do it alone - there are critical resources we need. For example in Richmond, we need funding to purchase equipment to keep our CSA running as an essential business and to support our elders and those with compromised immune systems who are not able to work at this time. Across the country, CJA members and other frontline communities are facing similar and their own unique challenges - can we count on your support?” Doria Robinson - Executive Director, Urban Tilth/ Our Power Richmond, CJA Member
If you are in a position to, please consider donating to one or more of our members in your region to support the critical work they’re doing right now.
