Sonia Turley-Landers care after medical emergency and loss of her husband: Ms. Sonia is a Mvskoke and Onondaga elder, and one of the head women of the Kvnfvske Ceremonial grounds in Fountain, Florida. She teaches the women of our ceremonial grounds with fierce and undying love, in everything that she does. She is naturally a caretaker for her blood family, her ceremonial family, and so many around her. But now she needs us to help to take care of her! https://gofund.me/ba82e125

Donate to Imagine Water Works: Since 2012 we’ve advocated for "living with water" and have worked at the intersections of reducing risk from flooding, pollution, and natural hazards, prioritizing those who are systemically forgotten or pushed to the margins. We also knew that the best solutions were multidisciplinary — so we've consistently integrated science, history, identity, and art into our work. We’re reimagining the future through art, science, and human connection. We hold space for intentional conversation, for creativity, and for existing fully as ourselves both in the present and in the future. Our core focus areas are water management, climate justice, and disaster readiness and response. Donate to Imagine Water Works here: https://donorbox.org/imagine-water-works
Donate to the NDN Collective: Their mission is to build the collective power of Indigenous Peoples, communities, and Nations to exercise our inherent right to self-determination, while fostering a world that is built on a foundation of justice and equity for all people and Mother Earth. https://ndncollective.org/donate/
Navajo Hopi Solidarity: Our vision is to empower our Navajo and Hopi people with the fortitude to overcome challenges through traditional principles of self-reliance and interrelatedness. Our mission is to build collective Navajo and Hopi power to exercise our inherent rights to self-determination by putting our cultural values and teachings into practice to rebuild and revitalize our communities. Our goal is to make our communities pandemic proof and climate change resilient. We never want to be this vulnerable again. Thus we have reserved some unrestricted funding to invest in a stronger future for our communities in the areas of food security, entrepreneurship, youth leadership, and housing. https://www.navajohopisolidarity.org/
