December Cash in the Plate

The first week of December will be donated to the Boston Immigration Justice Accompaniment Network (BIJAN), with whom the Boston-based UU Justice Action team has been working. 

BIJAN “is a community network of faith communities, individuals and other activist groups working to reduce the escalating harm of our immigration system in the current political context.”

“BIJAN provides accompaniment, which may include support in court or at ICE check-ins, legal referrals, fundraising for bond or legal fees, letters of support from the community, rides for families to visit loved ones in detention, and assistance with paperwork or bond payments. BIJAN can also help with housing, transportation, and other immediate needs of people released on bond who have no other resources in the community. BIJAN works closely with immigration justice and abolitionist organizations to support those impacted by the immigration system. BIJAN takes action only in response to requests from those in need of support.”

The Cash in the Plate for the remaining four weeks of December will be donated to the Minister’s Discretionary Fund.
