Healing & Justice for MMIW
Donation protected
Hey everyone-
We fought for two years and have won the creatation of a task force to start collecting data on the missing and murdered epidemic that faces native women in communities across the State of Minnesota.
We should celebrate. We should gather.
There is a group of individuals who are planning an event to celebrate the passage of this historic legislation and honor those whose names we hold in our hearts.
We would like to collect stories to make sure the task force hears them. We would like supportive service groups/organizations on site to talk to the community. We would like to create a 100 foot by 40 foot quilted red dress compromised of squares created on site at the event by family members and loved ones of a missing relative.
The venue alone costs just over $3,000. I think I may be low balling that food, travel assistance, and materials will be less than $2,000- but we will make it work!
