Hi John, this is Mary Meg, the executive director of the National Immigrant Justice Center. Our 22nd Annual Human Rights Awards virtual event is just a few days away on Tuesday, June 8 at 5:00 p.m. CST and I have some exciting updates to share with you! Make sure you register now so you can join us for the virtual Human Rights Awards: www.immigrantjustice.org/HumanRightsAwards We’re giving away books! When you register, you will be entered into a random drawing to win copies of Maria Hinojosa’s new book, Once I Was You: A Memoir of Love and Hate in a Torn America!* During the event, Maria will be moderating a panel conversation with NIJC clients, Ella, Gabriela, and Samer. And we’re doing a silent auction with great items like a dinner for 10 at Etta in Chicago, an in-home private wine tasting from Wines for Humanity, and tickets to the Chicago Shakespeare Theater. The silent auction is open now until Monday, June 14 at 5:00 PM CT, so you can check out the awesome items start your bidding right now! PLUS, your donation to NIJC will have double the impact thanks to a match from the J.B. and M.K. Pritzker Family Foundation! The J.B. and M.K. Pritzker Family Foundation will generously match all donations made during the Human Rights Awards or at registration up to $150,000. If you can’t attend the live virtual event, don’t worry, you can still donate to support immigrant rights and your gift will be matched. I look forward to seeing you at the Human Rights Awards next Tuesday! Register now so you can join us for the event: www.immigrantjustice.org/HumanRightsAwards -Mary Meg McCarthy
