We have been mourning the 10 black lives lost in B

We have been mourning the 10 black lives lost in Buffalo over the weekend. This avoidable tragedy is yet another reminder of the importance of gun regulations. But also that white supremacism has always been deadly, with whatever weapons have been available. As Sherrilyn Ifill writes, white supremacist theory and language exists in all areas of our lives and fuels violence that decimates the lives of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. So we must recognize that dismantling white supremacy requires the urgency and fervor we often apply to gun regulation and safety. Because its existence, too, is deadly. #repost @ardtakeaction

You may have heard about the baby formula shortage

You may have heard about the baby formula shortage that’s happening right now. Thankfully @openarmsperinatalservices has put together some information and resources about where those who need formula can still access it. Rather than simply suggesting lactating parents “just breastfeed,” we support the right for parents and families to make the best decisions for them and their children. Please share how and where you can! #Repost @openarmsperinatalservices with @make_repost

🍼 The national shortage of baby formula has been impacting families for months, but things took a turn for the worst in April when shortages reached up to 40% across the country.

We put together this list of resources to support parents to make informed and safe choices for their babies and how we can all support families in need.

We've talked about Ignite and what a wonderful eve

We've talked about Ignite and what a wonderful event it was this year, but we would be remiss if we didn't thank our corporate community partners! To @the_spur_group , Gordon Thomas Honeywell, USI Insurance Services, @bdo.usa , Southern Exposure, and Sweeney Conrad, thank you for recognizing the importance of this work and investing in our broader community. We couldn't do this work without companies like you 💜

Today is Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives

Today is Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives’ Day of Awareness. The disproportionate violence Native women face is an epidemic, and must have the representation and funding that reflects that. Please read these slides, follow the suggested accounts, and donate what you are able to these amazing organizations. #Repost @byellowtail with @make_repost

May 5th is Day of Awareness for our Missing & Murdered Indigenous Relatives.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Native Women, as well as our Girls, LGBTQ+, Two-Spirit and Non-Binary Relatives are at risk of experiencing violence at rates far higher than the national average.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This epidemic and crisis has roots in colonialism, and has impacted our relatives across Turtle Island, throughout North, Central and South America.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today, we hold space for our relatives who have suffered at the hand of this epidemic, and send our prayers to bring healing to all of our communities affected by ongoing violence and trauma.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Please take action today by sharing, advocating and donating to organizations that are on the ground fighting to end this epidemic. We will be sharing resources and organizations in our stories all day long.

Sending love and healing to all of our Relatives Not only today, but everyday, we hold space for the families and advocates.

Today’s the day! GiveBig is finally here, and we

The big days are almost here! GiveBig starts tomor

The big days are almost here! GiveBig starts tomorrow and goes through Wednesday, and this year our goal is to raise $60,000 to support survivors in our community and end domestic violence.

A group of fellow community members has pooled their resources together to create a match of $8,000. This means that any investment up to $8,000 will be matched until this pool runs out; your donation will be *doubled* and so will its impact for our programs.

At New Beginnings, our mission is to empower survivors. We believe participants are the experts of their own experience, and our survivor advocates provide one-on-one advocacy to help participants determine which of our services are best for them.

That's why giving events like GiveBig are so important: we cannot do the work of New Beginnings alone. Our services and programs rely on contributions from community members like you. So chip in what you can and GiveBig for survivors and our community!

Tonight's the big night! Our annual virtual cocktail party Ignite starts at 7 PM with auction items, a survivor speaker, and much more. In case you missed it, there's still time to register at the link in bio. We're so excited to celebrate survivors and our community. See you tonight! 🥂🎉

This week is an especially busy one for us over here at New Beginnings with our annual cocktail party Ignite on Friday. But we're also looking forward to next Tuesday and Wednesday when GiveBig Washington officially starts! In order to continue the services and support we provide survivors and our community, we are hoping to raise $60,000 during GiveBig. We're off to a great start with a couple of community partners committing to match the first $8,000 we raise in early giving (open now)! If you are able, please chip in whatever you can to help us start our GiveBig fundraising today. We cannot do this work without the support of community members like you! Link in bio to give today. 💜

We are so excited that our cocktail party Ignite is less than 5 days away! In anticipation of the event, we wanted to share a snippet of Kaycee's (our survivor speaker's) words about why community is essential to the work we do. Without partners like you who invest in this work, our survivor advocates would be unable to provide the continuing care, encouragement, and support that Kaycee describes here. We so look forward to Kaycee sharing her experiences as a survivor at New Beginnings, and hope to see you all there Friday! Free admission, link to register in bio.
