Signal boosting: Helping refugees escape detention

[starlady]

A good friend of mine has been working in Texas as part of a law clinic, representing asylum-seeking women and children who are detained under a blanket policy of detention for all refugee families coming from Central America. They are trying to raise enough money to post their clients' bail so that these women can pursue asylum claims and join their families in the U.S. Time is short, so any money you can give now would go a long way to making a huge difference in these people's lives. You can read more here and help pay for release for refugees here.

Hey. For reasons, it will be much more possible for me to donate money if it's to an official non-profit with an EIN. I see from their gofundme page that they are now "the proud board of a newly incorporated non-profit organization", which is great: but I don't see the information on that page and I also don't see any way to contact them. Can you ask your friend if they have that info?

PMing you!
