Hay muchas formas de donar a Comunidades Abiertas. La forma más impactante de apoyar nuestra misión es a través de una donación para apoyar nuestra educación, divulgación y defensa para ayudar a las familias a permanecer en sus hogares y sus comunidades. Otras formas de apoyar nuestra misión es aprovechar su experiencia, conexiones personales y profesionales o ser voluntario con nuestra Junta y el personal para promover nuestros programas.

At our 2024 April Fair Housing Month community event, over 200 people joined us to learn local history, celebrate community, and take action for housing justice. Walkers followed an educational route through Evanston's historic 5th ward learning the impact discriminatory housing policies had on our community and how they still show up in harmful new ways. Displays developed with Shorefront Legacy Center celebrated Black Evanstonians' contributions, showcased local Black-owned businesses, and demonstrated ways to take action for housing justice today.
Thanks to our generous sponsors, donors, walkers, neighbors, and local businesses who support our work to:
- Stand up for people experiencing housing discrimination
- Help neighbors keep their stable homes and prevent homelessness
- Increase housing accessibility and affordability
- Advocate for local housing justice
- Create communities we can all call home
Help us continue the moment, become a Housing Justice Advocate today with your monthly, sustaining donation.
