Solidarity w/ Migrants From Texas Volunteer & Donation Form
For five months, Texas Governor Abbott has been busing migrants and asylum seekers from the southern border to DC. It is essential that we, as a community in the DC-area, continue to mobilize to ensure that they are welcomed with open arms and supported as they make their way to their actual destinations. Volunteers are needed to greet the buses and provide mutual aid to folks once they arrive, and to people who chose to stay in DC. We also encourage people to donate on Venmo to @SanctuaryDMV with "Texas Solidarity" in the memo line or contribute in other ways: linktr.ee/dctxsolidarity22. Once you sign up someone will reach out to you for vetting purposes. You will need signal to volunteer so please download the app: https://signal.org/en/
