SUPPORT

The work of the school if moving forward full force, but we are doing it without the money to guarantee it. We need help fundraising!

If you know of a grant or donor who might be interested, please contact lydiaiwk@gmail.com.

Here are some small ways you can support the school:

$100: silk screen ink for DIY shirts and patches

$250: one hour of sound equipment rental for a hip hop performer

$500: to compensate a grassroots community organizer and poet for sharing their skills in a 3-session workshop

$750: provide fair trade coffee, tea and sugar for the whole event

$1000: ensure that the event is accessible to parents particularly women by providing childcare and children’s programming on site

$1000: food, lodging, transportation for one youth of color to attend

$1500: to provide transportation to an indigenous person coming from a rural or remote community who will return with new skills, organizing tools, contacts, and energy

$2500: one meal made from all locally and ethically sourced, produce, dairy etc from local farmers and community gardens

$6500: hire an indigenous person to coordinate outreach and communication to indigenous activists, organizers, land defenders, youth and elders
