Dear Friends,

We’re honored to participate in the 10th annual El Paso Giving Day on October 16!

As the hashtag suggests, #ElPasoGivingDay is all about local generosity, supporting nonprofits like Abara that are rooted right here in the borderlands.

For us, it’s a day to dream big and stand in solidarity with those along migrant pathways. This year, we’re aiming to raise $20,000 to support migrant shelters in Juárez, MX and sustain our ongoing operations.

Abara exists to create hospitable spaces for learning, dialogue, and connection,bringing people together beyond the headlines to rehumanize conversations about migration. Our Shelter Connector team regularly meets with shelter leaders—many of them pastors or faith community members, to assess needs and connect resources.

Your gift helps provide essentials like hygiene supplies, formula, access to holistic women’s health care, leadership respite care, and more, while fueling the work of our local team walking alongside those at the heart of these crucial times.

As part of this year’s effort, we’re inviting 200 people to give $50 each to provide access to holistic women’s health care—a crucial milestone within our larger $20,000 goal.

Will you help us reach our $20,000 goal? Every gift, big or small, makes an immediate impact.

Thank you for giving, sharing, and participating along with us. If you have any questions, simply reply to abarasupport@abara.org

Peace & Gratitude,

Team Abara
