How does my money make a difference?

SURJ Marin raises funds on behalf of local organizations led by People of Color, whose mission is to primarily serve the needs of local communities of color. Our current partners are the Multicultural Center of Marin, Marin City Arts and Culture, and Marin County Cooperation Team. We give a minimum of 75% of our proceeds to these organizations. The remaining amount is used to support our events and workshops, and to compensate speakers of color. When we share our proceeds with our partners, we are telling them that we, as an organization composed of majority white people, value their work. Your funds enable us to share a message of solidarity with these organizations and the people they serve, and let them know they are not alone in the fight for justice, equality, and equity.
