Hey friends! I’m opening up special commissions in order to help out RAICES (Refugee and Immigration Center for Education and Legal Services). Last night hundreds of families were released from detention centers in Texas. Though it’s great news considering these centers were the equivalent to prisons, unfortunately many families are now displaced in San Antonio & need your help!

RAICES are accepting donation$ at https://www.raicestexas.org/pages/casa
($21 for one family & so on)

>>>>If you donate $21 or more to Casa de Raices, message me a screenshot confirmation of your donation & I’ll draw you something!

>>> And If you can’t afford to donate more than $21 but would like a commission, email me at [email protected] & we can work something out (I’m combining smaller donations & sending them off all-together!! :)

And if you’re inclined to help out in other ways:
* In-kind donations are accepted such as bottled water, medicine (most kids leaving detention are sick!), pens, diapers, and baby wipes. They also need extra cell phones for families to call their families in the United States. There are hundreds sharing 2 cell phones. In-kind donations can be dropped off at 1443 S. St. Mary’s St. in San Antonio.
* Spanish speaking volunteers are still needed. RAICES staff have been up past 3am the last two nights helping families. They need your support. People interested in volunteering should email [email protected]

Please spread the word to #EndFamilyDetention. I encourage other artists to do the same! Let’s spread some hope & love before the end of this terrible year :D
