Just broke through $4,000 and 30 donors. Lets keep the momentum going as we close out the week. Our goal is $20,000 by 150 donors. No amount is too small for us to put it to good use fighting for environmental justice: northtexasgivingday.org/organization/D…

When asked why it is important to engage in EJ work, board member Laura describes it as, "...the movement to right the wrongs from racist policy practices. It is important to engage in this movement to support black and brown communities in their fight for a healthier community."

The city of Dallas won a federal grant of $2.3 million to remove lead from homes. Only four homes received assistance. The city returned most of the funds to the federal government, leaving multiple residents exposed to lead. Dallas Morning News dallasnews.com/news/investiga…

We start the day off just shy of $7,000 and 60 donors. Our North Texas Giving Day goal is $20,000 and 150 donors. Every dollar goes a long way towards holding City Hall and polluters accountable. Fund the frontlines of #EnvironmentalJustice today: northtexasgivingday.org/organization/D…

Duke football players were out helping signatures to join the union. A Union got NFL players the right to collectively bargain and get 48% of revenue that the league makes. Makes sense considering the players put their bodies on the line to make the product. We are next! #union
