Hello Friends,
Poppies for Palestine has hit a milestone, with donations to PCRF totaling $5,100 🇵🇸 Fundraising has been rather slow this winter, however, between local galleries and the kind efforts of friends in Winona, MN, Poppies continues to raise funds! Today Poppies for Palestine made a $200 donation to PCRF, bringing it to the total indicated above.
I am so grateful to all of the MANY folks who have helped make this project successful. There are so many kind groups of humans who have made space for Poppies for Palestine popup shops! I especially wish to thank the People's Exchange, for their early and steadfast support. PEX is the place where it all began; my first popup shop was hosted there and the rest is herstory. I am also grateful to local businesses who have so generously offered their support, including Vulca, the Smug Etruscan, LLC, PrettyStick, Studio 42 Art Gallery, Bigfoot's House of Vinyl and more, Spread Supplies and Over The Moon Coffee Roasters My deepest gratitude to you, as well as to everyone who has come by my popup to chat, shop, and/or donate. This would never have been possible without everyone who has supported me in big and small ways. Here's to the next $5,000!
My deepest and heartfelt thanks.
Free Palestine
Solidarity always 🇵🇸

In light of recent events on the Poulsbo For All FB page, administered by Pam Keeley, I can only say the following:
I don’t believe in fake support or surface-level collaboration.
You can call me a lot of things but a liar isn’t one.
Real community means:
🤍 Sharing opportunities
🤍 Opening doors
🤍 Supporting without conditions
🤍 Celebrating others’ wins
That’s what I’m committed to building—every day.
Solidarity always,
loren
