Does anyone know what other cities are building similar networks? Or how to get started doing it in your city?

 

Ximena is a 19-year-old college student currently under ICE detention. We are raising funds for her immigration attorney and bond. Ximena is a graduate of DHS. She came to this country in 2010 at the age of 4. She did not qualify for DACA as the program ended the year before her family immigrated. She has babysat for my kids for years. We adore her. Ximena is my close friend and my children’s favorite babysitter. All money raised is going directly to Ximena and her family to be used for legal representation.

Pinot & Period Party (events.chateauelan.com)
 

Join Kristin Klingshirn and Chateau Elan for an afternoon of community, connection, and giving back at the Pinot & Period Party. This special event supports the incredible work of Helping Mamas, Georgia’s baby supply bank, which serves nearly 60,000 children each year and distributes over 2 million essential items to families across the state.

Helping Mamas is dedicated to ending diaper need and period poverty—one donation, one care kit, one mama at a time. That’s where you come in.

At this open volunteer event, guests are invited to drop off donations of period products—pads, liners, and tampons—and help assemble period kits for women and teens in need. While you give back, enjoy a glass of wine and live music by DJ Willie T from Q99.7 in the beautiful Pavilion at Chateau Elan.

No tickets or RSVP are required—just bring your generosity and join us on May 4th at 2 p.m. as we support women, uplift our local community, and make a meaningful impact together.

It depends on how old you were when you were a kid and now. I would recommend getting your vaccination history and discussing it with your doctor. The vaccines do wane in effectiveness over time.

A driver's license or state issued ID does not prove citizenship. They are issued to green card holders and other people who are not US citizens. These are the types of documents necessary to prove citizenship to get a passport.

This is a terrible bill. It would mean that every citizen would need their birth certificate or passport to vote. It would be election workers could be bankrupted in civil court. It is illegal under current law for anyone thatis not a citizen to vote.

This would disenfranchise many eligible voters.
