Are you horrified by the way our neighbors on the South Coast are being treated by ICE?

Do you want to DO SOMETHING?

We are a grassroots group trying to pool together funds for quick disbursement to the families being impacted by ICE actions in New Bedford.

The funds we raise on this site will go to local residents who have been taken into custody by ICE, specifically to fund:

phone call accounts so those in ICE custody can communicate with loved ones and attorneys
basic living expenses for families who have lost a primary income in the household
legal and attorney fees
repair of damages to property caused by ICE agents

Who are we? The SouthCoast Welcome Corps was founded in 2023 by 6 local women to support migrant and/or unhoused families being sheltered in area hotels. We have reactivated our site to collect funds in order to support those being most impacted. We are connected with Coalition for Social Justice, Community Economic Development Center, Mujeres Victoriosas, and others doing this vital work. We plan to connect all interested donors with additional ways to support mutual aid and community-building efforts in the region, too.

(Your donation here is not tax-deductible. These funds will go to individuals. If you want to support the operations of a local 501c3, your support will surely be welcome!)
