REDIRECT FUNDS
Help us hit a goal of $30,000 split across organizations WHICH align with our solidarity with the students, those suffering in Gaza, and thE WIDER harlem community.
We highly encourage giving the amount you would have paid for the Reunion Events to any of these groups.
As a reference point, the General Reunion Weekend Ticket is $150, the Chelsea Piers Party is $85-$125, and the Class of 2015: Reception and Dinner is $85.
These links will track the number of donations so we can measure our impact and the money Columbia is losing out on from alumni donations and event attendance due to their actions. Last year’s boycott and fundraiser was a huge success making our voices heard to the administration — let’s continue the great progress!
Fund Legal Defense for Student Protestors
Students involved in the Columbia student movement for Palestine, and those harmed by Columbia and Barnard’s disciplinary repression, will be retaining a firm to pursue legal actions for Palestinian and pro-Palestine student protestors and allied faculty. All donations from this GoFundMe will be paid to the retained law firm.
PROVIDE FOOD AND WATER TO NORTHERN gAZA
Throughout the ongoing blockade, Go Project Hope is feeding hungry families in the Jabaliya refugee camp in North Gaza. The blockade has made food pricier and more scarce, still all donations are used to secure and distribute necessary items (e.g. water, clothes) to people on-the-ground in Gaza.
Support Education for 2,000 Children in Gaza
Founded in 2018 and based in Al-Bureij Camp in central Gaza, the Rowad Al-Amal Center for Education and Training is a youth-led initiative dedicated to providing educational services to the Palestinian community. Donations are used to pay teachers’ salaries, provide school supplies to 2,000 children, and set up tents to expand spaces for learning and joy.
STAND WITH THE NEIGHBORING COMMUNITY IN HARLEM
For more than 40 years, Broadway Community has served hundreds of New Yorkers experiencing homelessness, hunger, and social isolation with uncompromising care, dignity, and compassion.
