John – I wanted to make sure you saw the note we sent earlier this week.

I'm reaching out because we’re a bit behind on our fundraising goals. But I’m not worried. If everyone who receives this email chips in, we will get there. I would be so honored and grateful if you would support NDWA's work by making a special donation today. [[link removed]]

Since the pandemic began more than 18 months ago, you invested in our efforts to provide direct support to millions of vulnerable domestic workers, most of whom are women of color and immigrants, impacted by this crisis. You’ve been there every step of the way, helping build a movement that is laser focused on transforming our economy into a caring economy and our country into a caring country, where everyone can thrive instead of a select few.

We've always been able to count on you , and I know that today is no different. Will you make a gift today to support NDWA as we continue to fight on multiple fronts for the people who care for us? [[link removed]]

John – 18 months after the start of the pandemic, life continues to be a slow-rolling nightmare for nannies, housecleaners, and home care workers.

Last month 28% were still out of work. Even for those who are still able to work, things are very bad: 3 out of 4 domestic workers we surveyed in August faced food insecurity.

It’s devastating that mothers, whose working lives are spent caring for others, are unable to care for their own children, parents, and families — and we will stop at nothing to end the injustice prolonging this nightmare.

Day-in and day-out, our team tackles some of our country's greatest problems important to women and families. We advocate to change existing labor laws that make it ok to earn less than $7.25 for service work, create game-changing new platforms that make it possible to take *paid* sick leave, connect undocumented workers with legal support when they’re threatened with deportation, and so much more.

John - your support is the backbone of our ability to care for those who care for us, so I need to ask if you can pitch in with your most generous donation today: [[link removed]]

Domestic workers have been on the frontlines in homes continuing to care for people with disabilities when families have been unable to, they’ve stepped in as nannies when schools closed, AND of course looking after their own kids when schools are shut down.

While many people are now returning back to some semblance of a new normal, that’s NOT the case for many domestic workers — and ‘normal’ isn’t a place anyone wants to return to.

Because the truth is, without a safety net some of our domestic worker members face personal pandemic-level crises each day. When a family member is sick, nannies, housecleaners, and homecare workers are faced with the impossible choice of staying to care for them or leaving them to care for another family in order to put food on the table.

If you believe — as we do — that those who care for our loved ones and our homes also deserve to be cared for, I hope you will join us and make your most generous donation to support domestic workers today [[link removed]] .
