Resources for Floor Relief & Ways You Can Help
1.) Community to Community Development: URGENT SOLIDARITY REQUEST
Climate change disproportionately impacts agricultural workers in Whatcom County. The weather events earlier this week led to many families evacuating their homes, losing pets, irreplaceable belongings, and vehicles. C2C Promotoras are working directly with families in Whatcom County to assess needs for support. In the coming days and weeks, many families will be faced with difficult decisions, costly repairs, or needing to find new homes. We have set up a Solidarity Relief Fund which will go directly to farmworker families impacted by this catastrophic event. You can mail a check or visa gift card donation to:
Community to Community Development
203 W Holly St #311
Bellingham, WA 98225
If you are sending a check, please note "Solidarity Relief Fund" on the memo line
