SUMMARY:Eight Families in Gaza: Amplifying Their Voices
DESCRIPTION:The next “Eight Families in Gaza: Amplifying Their Voices” presentation\, will be on Saturday\, March 7\, 2026 at 2:30 p.m. in the downstairs Lecture Room of the Bellingham Public Library. \nDeveloped in collaboration with members of the featured families\, this special presentation offers a chance to learn about the lives\, loves\, and challenges of eight specific families in Gaza as they try to survive the ongoing genocide. \nThis event marks the passage of 1 year since the 1st of these presentations\, held in this same location on March 2\, 2025\, & will include updates about each of the families that Whatcom County & area communities have been trying to support ever since. \nAfter a year of growing support for the ‘Eight Families in Gaza\,’ we are experiencing a slow-down in community-hosted events\, right at the same time as individual contributions to survival funds for these families are declining.\nAside from the March 7th presentation\, there are currently no scheduled events to support these families. \nThese families are still depending on us to help them access what they need to survive. They’ve been enduring so much for so long\, and now they face the harshest winter\, with widespread illness\, amidst the continued blockade\, ongoing violence\, and extreme hardship. \nThe slow-down in events & donations has created serious instability and continued vulnerability for the lives of these families\, and we are seeking more sustaining donors\, and more opportunities to connect those want to help with efforts to raise support for these families. \nDo you have ideas about fundraising events you would like to collaborate on and help make a reality? Are you a business owner who wants to host an event\, or do you have a space we could use for hosting one ourselves? Are you part of a group\, club\, or organization who can host a presentation\, a potluck\, an information session\, or a gathering? Are you already planning an event where we could set up an Info Table about these families? \nIf so\, please contact clarissjanae@gmail.com \nAnd to learn more about these families & how you can support them\, please see:\nwww.veganinbellingham.com/p/eight-families-in-gaza-amplifying-their.html

SUMMARY:Whatcom Families for Justice: Bookshare Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:THIS SUNDAY\, SEPT 28TH 📚\n\n\n\nWe are happy to announce we’ll be hosting another Bookshare & Give-Away fundraising event at the Bellingham Public Library this weekend on Sunday\, September 28\, 2025.Books\, Zines\, and other media will be available to be shared and given away as encouragement and incentive to those who will make donations to families in Gaza. \nPalestine has been renowned for years as having one of the highest literacy rates in the world\, and as being a place where education and reading are valued\, supported\, and highly esteemed. Education is integrated into Palestinian culture\, heritage\, and identity. Which is why Israel (with the support of the United States government) has always targeted it. \nThis Bookshare fundraiser is in homage to those whose libraries and book collections have been targeted and destroyed by Israel. \nThis event is not sponsored by the Bellingham Public Library. \nWe hope to see you on Sunday to further connect and stand in solidarity with Palestinians.
