Green For All is a program of Dream Corps
John–
It’s hard not to breathe auto exhaust and diesel fumes when you live right near a busy highway. For many low-income families and people of color in America, inhaling tailpipe pollution is a fact of life.
Too many of the kids in these neighborhoods end up in jail -- and too few end up in Silicon Valley boardrooms. The last thing they need is to bear the brunt of the climate crisis, too.
Dream Corps is committed a deep patriotism that brings unlikely allies together to create real change. Right now, our Green For All program is mobilizing a movement to bring zero-emission electric cars, trucks, and buses to underserved neighborhoods, and we need your help.
The end-of-year deadline is fast approaching, and we’re still trying to hit our $200,000 goal. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation now.
Green for All puts justice for underserved communities at the center of the work. Just ask Rep. Joe Kennedy, III (D-Mass):
“Our policy conversations....have to be about justice. For too long, policy-makers have ignored this part of our climate debate and ignored the people and communities hit first and worst by our generations of inaction and discrimination built into our system. I’m proud to join Green For All in their efforts to prioritize equity as we work to find solutions to poverty and pollution.”
If you’re willing to help, we have ambitious plans for 2020:
- Partner with allies to build a Green Jobs pipeline, with a special focus on second-chance hiring for those who have served time behind bars
- Convene a bipartisan group to find common-ground solutions on climate, modeled on our #cut50 program’s successful work to enact criminal justice reform
- Fight to put equity for underserved communities at the center of the conversation around transportation, energy, and jobs.
Our 2020 plans depend on deep patriots like you, and time is running out to help us hit our $200,000 deadline with a tax-deductible year-end gift.
Dream Corps exists to march America away from the ugly parts of our country’s founding reality -- and toward our beautiful founding dream.
That means closing prison doors and opening doors of opportunity into the tech sector and a new, growing green economy.
Thank you for all you do. - Nisha and the Dream Corps team.
