Northwest Immigrant Rights Project – December 2, 2025

Posted on December 2, 2025

Español abajo

As we spend time with our friends and family members, we want to take a moment to name our gratitude for supporters like you. Thank you for being a source of hope for Northwest Immigrant Rights Project this year. 

Today, on Giving Tuesday, we want to tell you about four other organizations that do an incredible job supporting the community. We hope you’ll take some time today to get to know these organizations, and consider making a Giving Tuesday gift in support of one or more of them.

Advocates for Immigrants in Detention Northwest (AIDNW) assists immigrants and asylum seekers detained in and released from the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma, Washington. Upon their release from immigration detention, AIDNW volunteers warmly welcome them to the Pacific Northwest, unite them with their U.S. families or sponsors, provide temporary housing, and connect them to resettlement resources.

Make a Gift in Support of AIDNW

Jewish Coalition for Immigrant Justice (JCIJ) NW is a multi-generational, multi-lingual Jewish Coalition activating, educating, and raising awareness to meet the emergent needs of the moment in the movement for immigrant justice. JCIJ has been instrumental in providing accompaniment to immigrant community members as they navigate a complicated, often intimidating system. JCIJ members accompany people to their immigration appointments, bond people out of detention, staff legal clinics, and organize mutual aid.

Make a Gift in Support of JCIJ

Real Change exists to provide opportunity and a voice to low-income and homeless people while taking action for economic, social and racial justice. Real Change provides low-barrier, immediate work for anyone who needs it and produces a weekly, award-winning newspaper covering issues that impact the community.

 Make a Gift in Support of Real Change

Wenatchee for Immigrant Justice (WIJ) promotes justice through advocacy, direct assistance and education. WIJ’s outreach is centered on countering the long-term damage to families and our community that racism, white supremacy and anti-immigrant policies have caused. WIJ funds promote immigrant community resilience in the Greater Wenatchee area by providing economic stability for families in financial crisis by subsidizing rent and other basic needs, as well as immigration-related needs and costs.

Make a Gift in Support of Wenatchee for Immigrant Justice

Thank you for considering a donation in support of these important organizations. We are grateful to have a community that is dedicated to pursuing justice for all. 

With tremendous gratitude, 

Malou Chávez

Executive Director


Mientras disfrutamos del tiempo con nuestros amigos y familiares, queremos tomar un momento para expresar nuestra gratitud por personas solidarias como tú. Gracias por ser una fuente de esperanza para el Proyecto del Noroeste para los Derechos del Inmigrante este año.

Hoy, en Giving Tuesday, queremos hablarte de otras cuatro organizaciones que hacen un trabajo increíble apoyando a la comunidad. Esperamos que puedas dedicar un momento a conocerlas y considerar hacer un donativo de Giving Tuesday en apoyo a una o más de ellas.

Advocates for Immigrants in Detention Northwest (AIDNW) asiste a inmigrantes y solicitantes de asilo que han sido detenidos o liberados del Northwest ICE Processing Center en Tacoma, Washington. Al ser liberadas de la detención migratoria, las personas son recibidas cálidamente en el Noroeste del Pacífico por voluntarios de AIDNW, los asisten con reunirlos con sus familias o patrocinadores en EE. UU., proporcionarles alojamiento temporal y conectarlos con recursos de reasentamiento.

Realiza una donación en apoyo a AIDNW

Jewish Coalition for Immigrant Justice (JCIJ) NW es una Coalición Judía multigeneracional y multilingüe que activa, educa y genera conciencia para responder a las necesidades urgentes del momento en el movimiento por la justicia para inmigrantes. JCIJ ha sido fundamental en brindar acompañamiento a miembros de la comunidad inmigrante mientras navegan un sistema complejo y, a menudo, intimidante. Sus miembros acompañan a las personas a sus citas de inmigración, pagan fianzas para la liberación de detenciones, apoyan con clínicas legales y organizan ayuda mutua.

Realiza una donación en apoyo a JCIJ

Real Change existe para ofrecer oportunidades y voz a las personas de bajos ingresos y personas sin una vivienda; a la vez que impulsa acciones por la justicia económica, social y racial. Real Change ofrece oportunidades de trabajo inmediatas y accesibles para quienes las necesiten y publica un periódico semanal galardonado que aborda temas de gran impacto para la comunidad.

Realiza una donación en apoyo a Real Change

Wenatchee for Immigrant Justice (WIJ) promueve la justicia mediante activismo, la asistencia directa y la educación. El trabajo de WIJ se centra en contrarrestar el daño a largo plazo que el racismo, la supremacía blanca y las políticas antiinmigrantes han causado en las familias y en nuestra comunidad. Los fondos de WIJ fomentan la resiliencia de la comunidad inmigrante en el área de Greater Wenatchee, proporcionando estabilidad económica a familias en crisis financieras al subsidiar el alquiler y otras necesidades básicas, así como gastos y necesidades relacionadas con inmigración.

Realiza una donación en apoyo a Wenatchee for Immigrant Justice

Gracias por considerar realizar un donativo en apoyo de estas importantes organizaciones. Estamos agradecidos por contar con una comunidad dedicada a promover la justicia para todos.

Con inmensa gratitud, 

Malou Chávez

Executive Director
