IFC is proud to be a co-sponsor of the House Us Now! rally, one way we live out our mission to Confront the Causes of Poverty and Build Community.
Ways to get involved:
- Join us on August 28th to stand in solidarity and center the voices of
people most impacted by the high cost of housing in our community. Who keeps us safe? We keep us safe! With COVID numbers going up, and our desire to keep each other safe, wearing a face mask is strongly encouraged. Also consider bringing water and a hat.
- Share this email and posts from our social media pages with your
neighborhood listservs, faith congregations, and friends.
- Volunteer to help during the rally.
- Donate to defray the cost of hosting the rally.
- Watch for future affordable housing advocacy opportunities including:
• Pee Wee Homes Hill Street Project • Upcoming Chapel Hill Human Services Meeting • Meeting of the Minds Collaboration • Jay Street Development
