Donate to Support Lourdes’s Urgent Medical Care in Bolivia, organized by Jonah Augustine Luis Callisaya is a dear friend of many of us who work in and around … Jonah Augustine needs your support for Support Lourdes’s Urgent Medical Care in Bolivia

This is a colleague of mine from Bolivia’s wife - it was a hit and run. Plus Bolivia does not exactly have health insurance as we know it so it’s all out of pocket for them. Please consider donating as she has a long road to recovery and a young child. gofund.me/f80418105

An image of a crumpled child's gold foil and cardboard crown sitting on a melting block of ice. The crown has shed some decorative orange and pink pompoms, which are floating in the melted ice water puddle. Part of the puddle pools into letters that spell "No Kings".
