Help out striking Bellingham workers

C2C and the Sakuma Workers' Rights Committee would like to thank our community supporters that have gone above and beyond in letting us know that you support workers’ rights! Let's keep this going!

We are thrilled to report that we have been able to buy gas cards for many of the Committee members and their families. In addition, individuals and businesses have donated food, fresh produce from gardens, along with other basic-need goods. As the workers continue to stand up for their rights, we are asking the solidarity community to stand up with them! There are over 500 workers and family members affected by this fight. Please take a moment to consider supporting the workers and C2C!
