When tragedy strikes our community, we stand together.

Real Change is a powerful voice for a just and compassionate world, and our vendors are at the heart of our mission. We believe we have an obligation to provide support when our vendors and unionized staff are detained by ICE, and we know our community is standing with them to fight for their freedom.

The Real Change Legal Defense Fund is a restricted fund that provides immediate legal, financial, and emotional support to our vendors and their families in their greatest moment of need. Your gift today will ensure that they have the resources to challenge these unjust detentions and the support they need to navigate this crisis.

ICE's actions are an attack on the fundamental rights of all people seeking to escape poverty and homelessness. Your support is a powerful declaration that our city, our community, and Real Change will not stand for this injustice.

Please, give now to provide hope and help in the face of fear, and know that we will keep you informed with regular updates.

All donations received will go towards any Real Change vendor, vendor's family, and/or unionized Staff member according to established Real Change policies. If you would like to support a specific vendor, please contact us for their badge number to be entered into Venmo and credited to their account. Contact: vendorprogram@realchangenews.org
