Contribute to the Morales family GoFundMe ‌ Dear friends, As many of you read last week, our community in Immokalee has suffered a shocking and unnecessary loss of life at the hands of the Collier County Sheriff's Office. Nicolas Morales Besanilla, a longtime Immokalee farmworker and single father, was shot and killed by a Collier County Deputy on Thursday, September 17th. You can read the full story here. We are working closely with Nicolas's family to seek justice, both for the family and for our community, and we are also finding ways to support the family's immediate needs, particularly those of Nicolas's son, in this difficult time. Many of you have generously reached out to send your condolences, heartbreak, and offers of support. There will certainly be more details and ways to support the call for justice for Nicolas in the weeks ahead. For now, we wanted to pass along a GoFundMe page that Nicolas's family has set up for those who wish to offer their support, in case you would like to donate.
