WE COLLECTED 16 UNITS!
We had another successful blood drive in honor of my 44th birthday. We had a nearly full schedule of donors and several walk-in donors. I feel incredibly blessed to be surrounded by GOOD PEOPLE that show up and donate blood to help save lives. There is so much going on in It’s becoming a scary place for those that don’t already have inherited wealth and power. The idea of attaining the american dream becomes more untenable with every new executive order.
I am grateful to see people are still showing up and getting the important work done. Arizona Burners Without Borders is amping up to announce projects like we have never done before. We see the need for community building and protecting our most vulnerable.
We see the need for food soveriegnty like never before. We hear that we are facing housing crisis like never before and we are imploring our community to come together to share resources, share knowledge, and help each other learn to THRIVE again.
I truly believe our purpose is to thrive not merely survive. Please complete a microgrant request to start your next community project! We recently celebrated our founder Corinne’s 44th birthday with a successful blood drive at Walter Studios!
It was heartwarming to see a nearly full schedule of donors, along with many walk-ins who stepped up to help save lives. I feel incredibly blessed to be part of a community filled with such GOOD PEOPLE who are committed to making a difference, especially in these challenging times.
While the politics and in the world today can feel overwhelming, events like our blood drive remind us of the power of community and compassion. We are facing significant challenges, from food sovereignty to a looming housing crisis, and it is essential for us to come together and support one another.
As we look forward, I encourage everyone to take action. Let’s harness that spirit of community building and resource sharing. If you have a project idea that would benefit our community and help us thrive, I urge you to complete a microgrant request. Together, we can create positive change and ensure that we don’t just survive, but truly thrive. Thank you to everyone who participated in the blood drive—let’s keep this momentum going!
Burning Bright,
Corinne
