Friend,

As Bend the Arc’s Director of Development, my focus since November has been raising money to prepare for the incoming Trump administration.

But Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk are already sowing chaos — endangering millions of Americans with a possible government shutdown.¹

We aren’t waiting for January to take action; our work to resist Trump has already begun. We need your help now to fund rapid response action alerts, advocacy with our partners in the halls of power, and organizing a Jewish resistance movement. Chip in with $10, $18, $36, or any other amount to help us hit our grassroots fundraising goal of $15,000 before December 31.

Here’s how your contribution will make a difference in the days, weeks, and months ahead:

🪧 $10 helps print powerful posters for an action
🚀 $18 funds action alert texts to mobilize our base
☎️ $36 powers advocacy tools to contact elected officials
🦺 $72 funds a digital security training to keep volunteers and leaders safe
💪 $118 covers an in-person organizing training
🚌 $250 helps get people to DC for a protest

At Bend the Arc, we’re prepared to fight Trump’s dangerous actions now, in January, and beyond. We’ll show up alongside our partners — across the country, in the streets, and on Capitol Hill — to keep our beloved communities safe.

Every dollar we raise between now and December 31 will be immediately put to use. Help us reach our grassroots fundraising goal of $15,000 — we can’t do it without you.

With solidarity and gratitude,

Mickey Lambert
Director of Development, Bend the Arc
