Based in Portland, Oregon, this organization leverages economic deposits from communities of privilege to empower local BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities and begin to move towards economic equity. Donations go towards purchasing CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) produce shares from Portland’s BIPOC farming community, then gifting these CSA shares to BIPOC families experiencing food insecurity who are not currently being served by the social services networks.

Since 2005, the Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition (PIRC) has been on the front lines, defending the rights of immigrants in our community. Your support allows us to provide crucial legal defense resources, maintain our community hotline, and ensure no one faces deportation alone.

Named after the extinct Xerces Blue Butterfly, this international nonprofit works with scientists, educators, policymakers, farmers, and citizens to protect the world’s invertebrates and its habitats. Their core programs focus on habitat conservation and restoration, species conservation, protecting pollinators, contributing to watershed health, and reducing harm to invertebrates from pesticide use. The Xerces Society is currently in the middle of an international campaign to “Save the Monarchs” to help save the Monarch Butterfly species and hopefully reverse the 99.4% decline in the Monarch population that’s occurred since the 1980s.
