There are just a few days left before 2024 ends. The year 2025 is filled with uncertainty for the immigrant community. That is why we need your financial support today so we are prepared to fight for local immigrants, no matter what challenges they face. Based on the ever-changing whims of the new administration, many of our clients risk immediate deportation, and - once again - children could be separated from their families. Your gift will support our clients’ greatest and – now, wildly unpredictable – needs. We will continue to be there to defend the rights of refugees and asylum seekers and advocate for their rightful inclusion in America - just like we did during the first Trump administration. We need your support today to meet the chaos that lies ahead. Help us stand up for immigrants by donating before 2024 ends: https://lnkd.in/eKgUTNab

It addresses the key economic, social and cultural determinants needed for lasting change to prevent complex disadvantage and trauma. "It’s possible to end entrenched disadvantages in a generation. Be part of this change by supporting Children’s Ground, walking alongside First Nations children and families.” Support here 👉 https://hubs.ly/Q02FMVv80 #NAIDOCWeek #FirstNationsCharity #FirstNationsNonProfit #NAIDOC2024 #BlakLoudProud

At this time of year, many people pause to reflect on the true meaning of philanthropy, asking themselves: What is the best way to give? To whom should I give? And, perhaps most importantly, why should I give? Fifteen years ago, I published Dead Aid: Why Aid Is Not Working and How There Is a Better Way for Africa. I argued that government-to-government aid, rather than fueling economic growth, inadvertently harms the very countries it is meant to help. Since then, philanthropists have often sought my advice about their desire to grapple with seemingly intractable challenges, such as extreme poverty or climate change. In this season of giving, donors should ask themselves twelve key questions when considering how, where, and why to give.

We are pleased to share that Pamir Canadian Multiculturalism Council executives recently attended the Community's Networking Reception and Annual celebration, hosted by the Calgary Foundation. In 2023, the Calgary Foundation generously donated over $75 million to support more than 1,200 organizations in Calgary, significantly impacting our city. During the recent Vital Cities event in 2024, they presented some notable statistics from their Quality of Life report: - Despite Calgary being ranked highly as one of the most livable cities globally, 47% of Albertans are just $200 away from financial instability. - 46% of individuals are reducing their intake of fruits and vegetables, while 29% are worried about food shortages. - A concerning 78% of Calgarians do not feel secure walking alone downtown after dark. These figures highlight the continuous challenges we are encountering and stress the crucial role that community-focused organizations like the Calgary Foundation play in driving positive change. We express our gratitude to the Calgary Foundation for their dedicated efforts, and we, at Pamir Canadian Multiculturalism Council, proudly stand as a member organization. #TogetherWeCan ##TogetherWeRise #TogetherAsOne #yycrise #calgaryfoundation #pamircanadain #pamircanadianvolunteers #pamircanadianadvocates #glocalgoals #localgoals #yyclocalabove #calagrysdg

Today is #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay It is a special day to acknowledge the outstanding achievements, diverse cultures, and unique heritages of Indigenous, Inuit, and Métis people across Turtle Island. It is also a day to acknowledge the truth about our collective history. I encourage everyone to take time today to learn about the Indigenous history of the places where you live, work, and play. Consider donating your time or money to an Indigenous-led organization, and familiarize yourself with the 10 Guiding Principles of Reconciliation from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report. Talk with your colleagues, friends, and families about showing solidarity with Indigenous Peoples and the role that everyone plays on the path towards Reconciliation. #truthandreconciliation

Do you believe Chicago should remain a welcoming city? Wondering what role you can play or how you can make a difference? The justification for increased immigration enforcement, including raids now allowed to target previously off-limit “sensitive locations,” was to focus on criminals. Yet, the reality has created widespread fear, impacting all immigrants—keeping families at home, children out of school, and individuals away from critical services like ours. This is not about criminals. It's about our student members who are documented, undocumented, legal permanent residents and citizens in mixed status households. Stories like Audelia Alvarez Vasquez's—carrying her proof of residency everywhere she goes—are not just anecdotes in the Chicago Tribune. They’re our daily reality shaped by anxiety and the threat of mass deportation. At PODER, we’re working tirelessly to provide resources, education, and support to our community. But we can’t do it alone. Your donation can make a tangible impact today. Your support allows us to: 👉 Empower immigrants with “Know Your Rights” workshops 👉 Provide critical resources to families living in fear. 👉 Advocate for compassionate policies and protections 🫶 Together, we can strengthen our community and give hope to those who need it most. 🫶 Stand with us. Stand with immigrants. Donate now: https://lnkd.in/ghncZz6j Learn more: https://lnkd.in/esZPMQs4 #EmpoweringDreams #StrengtheningCommunities #TellingOurStory
