If you need cleaning services for your home or business please support Shine Together. Let’s keep this fantastic local immigrant and women owned cooperative thriving!


shinetogethercoop.com

About SHINE Together: We are passionate about having fresh and clean spaces to encourage joy and creativity. As we dreamed together of a different future for our livelihood, a group of us, immigrant leaders launched a worker owned cleaning cooperative in 2021. Through equal parts innovation, imagination and inspiration, Shine Together was launched to create a community-based alternative to economic systems that push immigrants to the margins.

Please support Jose’s GoFundMe if you can: https://gofund.me/ed2f2d328

I am reaching out through this GoFundMe to ask for help from the community and everyone who is able to assist my family. Unfortunately, my husband was arrested and detained by ICE. We have a one-year-old daughter and we need him to come home. Any donation is welcome. I count on your help! This GoFundMe is to help cover the lawyer fees and bail expenses.

Thanks to everyone who showed up to support the People’s Pantry Community Speakout. It was powerful to hear from community members who shared about the impact of ICE violence in our neighborhoods and the impact of funding cuts for our community services! ✊🏽📢

We are the peoples pantry’s! Stop by and add a leave to their gratitude tree to support 🍁🍂🍃

… and join us TODAY at 12PM in Lappin Park, 239 Essex St. Salem MA (By the Bewitched Statue) to hear from our community and learn how you can help!

The message is clear: Washington funds incarceration, deportation, and terror NOT care and nourishment. While families go hungry, federal spending priorities tell a different story:
$40 billion annual budget for ICE
$10 million in deportation propaganda ads
$1.2 billion for a new military detention camp in El Paso

Call to Action: We are mobilizing across the state. We choose to fight back by taking care of each other amidst federal cuts to food and healthcare. We are taking action despite and against terror amongst our neighbors at the hands of hostile federal agents.
