Dear John,

(This appeal contains corrected links. Many apologies!)

Another holiday season is upon us, with another reminder of the things we cherish most – family, community, health, our planet and the people who live on it.

-

The holiday season also brings charitable appeals, many that support worthy social justice causes.

-

We’d like to urge you to make a tax-exempt donation to a great supporter of social justice causes and socialism - People Before Profits Education Fund / Chelsea Fund for Education, Inc. (PBP/CFE, hit the "please donate" button)

-

PBP/CFE is a 501c3 not-for-profit organization whose mission is to "broaden and deepen the working class's capacity through supporting Marxist educational and cultural programming around the country."

-

PBP/CFE supports a wide array of social justice projects, including co-sponsoring Marxist schools with the Communist Party USA and the publication of Marxist pamphlets and literature.

-

PBP/CFE also supports public events organized by readers of People's World.

-

Just last week, PBP/CFE helped make possible a conference co-sponsored by the People's World of over 50 young trade unionists in Raleigh, North Carolina to discuss "Southern Labor Organizing in the Era of Trump."

-

“The event very diverse, multi-generational, with participation from different trades and backgrounds including Black Workers for Justice, Farm Labor Organizing Committee, Southern Workers Assembly, Durham Workers Assembly, Comité Acción de Popular, and representatives from several unions,” said event organizer Lorri Nandrea.

-

“Farm laborers and migrant workers told moving stories of the hardships they experience, and we had Spanish to English and English to Spanish translation,” recounted Lorri. "These groups are networking together, and already new projects and relationships have emerged, including around the GOP Convention in 2020 in Raleigh,” said Lorri.

-

By supporting PBP, you are helping build the movements necessary to fight for working-class unity, racial and gender equity, LGBTQ and immigrant rights, for saving our planet and environmental justice, a socialist future, and much more.

-

You can support PBP by making a tax-exempt donation directly on Giving Tuesday.

-

Or if you plan to purchase anything on Black Friday, Cyber Monday or throughout the holiday season on Amazon, you can select Chelsea Fund for Education as your charitable organization on AmazonSmile. Amazon Foundation will then donate 5 percent of your purchase to People Before Profits Education Fund / Chelsea Fund for Education if you select it as your preferred recipient.

-

You can automatically select PBP/CFE by following this link.

-

-

As you can see, PBP/CFE is making a difference in these difficult and challenging times. We urge you to donate generously during this holiday season.

-

Warm wishes to you and your family,

-
