Settler colonialism relies on violence to displace and eliminate indigenous communities.

We need you moving forward

Dear friends,

Like other Palestinian organizations in Palestine, we, too, have been the target of zionist campaigns. Yesterday, we were informed by our donation platform, Square Payments, that we could no longer use their services. Settler organizations here have long targeted the Good Shepherd Collective because of our call to restrict their charitable fund in the United States.

As a result of this deplatforming, we have lost our recurring donations. This means we have lost the vast majority our monthly revenue to keep our work going. This is the third time groups have targeted us since we started five years ago. We have, however, set up a temporary way to donate. At this challenging moment, we ask for your support while we rebuild our donation system and base.

You can express your solidarity here with a donation.

In solidarity, Cody

The Good Shepherd Collective rejects the model of large grants from liberal institutions because of the ways it can shape the work. Instead, we premise our work in the financial investments from individuals who believe in the future we're trying to build. Consider becoming a monthly donor.
