Move Money: Reparations Santa Cruz

Deadline extended to February 29

Reparations Santa Cruz – a grassroots, all-volunteer project based on the principles of mutual aid – has extended the deadline for raising money to fund three to five leadership & advisory board positions that will be filled exclusively by Black Santa Cruz community members. Since 2020, Reparations Santa Cruz has raised over $120,000 to distribute direct payments to Black Santa Cruz community members. The 100% Black-led advisory board would allow RSC to grow, evolve, and expand their capacity to organize white folks to divest of stolen wealth and to distribute funds directly to Black people. Too often Black folk’s labor, especially Black femme labor, goes uncompensated. We aim to raise $5,000 by February 29 to cover the leadership team’s time. This is an opportunity to support the growth & sustainability of this wealth redistribution project and to fairly cover the leadership team’s time. We invite you to give generously and share this information widely with your networks! Donate on Venmo to @reparations-sc. 

Let’s help this tremendous group meet their goal in order to continue doing the right thing to help level the economic playing field.
