CURE's mantra is TALKING ABOUT RACE AND RACISM IS UNCOMFORTABLE. LET'S TALK!
It's the 4th of July - our annual celebration of our forefather's fight for the shared right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." BUT their dream was built on the economic backbone of slavery. As the events of the past months have shown, almost 250 years later, our nation is still failing to provide LIBERTY FOR ALL. Until we educate all people on the historical and structural roots of racism in the US, the 4th of July can not truly be a celebration for all.
To date this year, we have raised just over $7,500 and offered six public events and numerous informal conversations (view our past events here). Now, before the end of the 4th of July weekend, we are seeking to raise an additional $7,420 (7/4/20). We need your support NOW! Can you help us reach over $15,500 total? The time if NOW for Larchmont-Mamaroneck to be at the forefront of this work!
CURE - The Coalition for Undoing Racism through Education is a volunteer, community advocacy group that works to bring education to Larchmont and Mamaroneck on the subject of institutional and systemic racism in our community and our country. Our team is inspired by the need to create a more equitable world now and for our kids’ future. www.learnwithcure.com
The bottom line: it costs money to bring carefully curated and professional led conversations to our community. This is why we need your financial support!All Go Fund Me money is used to pay directly for event related fees.
These include:
- Speaker fees
- Facilitator fees
- Printing costs
- Promotions
