Donations needed!

Because of the raids and their impending court dates, many of the workers at the El Balazo Taquerias have not been able to find work. As a result, they need help, monetarily and otherwise, to make ends meet.

You can donate money, of course, by writing a check to "EBASE" with "El Balazo" in the memo line (see the right-hand bar of this blog for more details). Monetary donations are especially important in that they help pay for legal fees, rent, food, and medical expenses, all of which are sorely needed.

But if you have any of the following and would be willing to donate them to the El Balazo workers and their families, it would be sincerely appreciated.

• Diapers (for children ages 0 to 4); also diapers for an 11 year-old boy
  
• Children's clothes (for girls: 9 month-old, 3 year-old)
• Adult shoes and clothes (for men)
• Maternity clothes
• School supplies for children (ages 5, 8, 10, and 16)

Special help is needed, also, in finding a house for rent in Tracy, CA.

You can bring these to the BBQ fundraiser (details below and in the right-hand bar) or email us at balazodefense@gmail.com for other arrangements.
