Dear Friend,

Greetings from your local DSA Ventura County Chapter.

In light of the recent events concerning the murder of George Floyd, several of our members have participated in demonstrations and actions across Ventura County. Today, we are asking for you to consider donating to our chapter so we can continue to organize and effect real and lasting change in our communities. 

In the past few months, our DSA members:

• participated in several protests for justice of George Floyd’s murder
• continued volunteering efforts for mutual aid and packed food for distribution
• built garden boxes for several families to promote sustainable food practices
• revived the Police Oversight Committee to organize actions for the defunding and demilitarization of VC police departments

With your continued financial support, we would be able to have the funds to push our legislators and councilmembers to address our most pertinent social issues such as universal healthcare, police brutality, climate change, and more.

We would also be able to further expand and implement our mutual aid efforts to support community members and comrades in this time of need, such as:

• solidarity meal funds with locally-owned businesses to feed those in need
• building more garden boxes for community members
• supporting allies during protests and demonstrations by providing food, water and medical supplies

Any donation amounts would be greatly appreciated. You can also donate to other groups and individuals here: https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/#donate

Thank you for your continued support.
